The ACE Basin - The ACE Basin offers one of the most beautiful natural landscapes in South Carolina. This image is the view west from what will become one of the project’s four bridges.

Preparing the Approach - Crews grade the sub base and place geotextile fabric prior to adding fill dirt for the construction of the approach on the project’s northern most bridge.

Placing fill dirt - Once the roadbed has been cleared, fill dirt is brought onto the site from local borrow pits. Fill dirt is comprised of subsoil, which creates a smooth, compact surface upon which the road’s asphalt can be placed.

Road Compaction - To insure the road bed is compacted thoroughly, steel wheel rollers drive back and forth across the fill dirt

Thanksgiving - Thankful for the opportunity to work on this project, the project team collected canned goods and donations to assist three families living near the project identified by local community leaders.

Turtles - The silt fencing works to keep these two turtles from entering the construction zone. Protecting the lives of humans and even animals is a project goal for everyone on the project.
