Orangeburg Loop
Project Description
The Orangeburg Loop Project proposes to widen and improve associated intersections on Orangeburg Road (from Dorchester Road to Yerby Road), Mallard Road (from Orangeburg Road to Highway 78), and Jedburg Road (from Highway 78 to the Berkeley County Line) to reduce traffic congestion, improve safety, and accommodate bicyclists and pedestrians. The approximate eight miles of roadway is proposed to be widened to two travel lanes in each direction with a center turn lane or landscaped median.
