US 17 ACE Basin Segments 1 and 2A would not be under construction without SCDOT’s long-standing commitment to improving the safety of this two-lane highway. Community members in the area and families of people injured and killed along this stretch of roadway diligently followed public hearings and the funding process, reminding statewide leadership of the project’s need and importance.
SCDOT could not have made this project happen without leadership from the following groups and individuals: The ACE Basin Task Force, the Agency Coordination Team (made up of Federal and State Agencies including FHWA), input from community groups such as the Advocates for Change on Highway 17, as well as the Governor Mark Sanford and several legislators including Senator Clementa Pinckney, Senator Catherine Ceips, Representative Robert Brown, and Representative Ken Hodges.
