Project Description
The project area spans a 10-mile corridor of I-95, starting on I-95 one mile past the Georgia state line continuing to approximately mile marker 9 (just north of US 278). This area includes 14 bridges, two existing interchanges (Exits 5 and 8), and a new proposed interchange at Exit 3 that is being completed as a separate project by the Town of Hardeeville.
Purpose & Need
The purpose of this I-95 Improvements (formerly I-95 Widening) project is to improve capacity, mobility, and operations along the 10-mile corridor of I-95 from one mile into Georgia at the Savannah River to approximately mile marker 9 (just north of US 278) and to address operational deficiencies for interchanges and bridges within the corridor.
