The history of the Carolina Crossroads project began long before construction officially broke ground in 2021.
Take a look at how the I 20/26/126 corridor has evolved over the years. ⏪
Ever wonder how big roadway projects get done? 🚧
There are five stages in the process: pre-design, design, procurement, construction, and completion!
Carolina Crossroads Phase 3 is divided into subphases allowing construction to proceed efficiently.
Nighttime deck pours aren’t just for convenience; they’re for quality and safety.
Cooler temperatures at night help concrete cure evenly, while lower traffic volumes create safer work zones and reduce disruptions for drivers. 🌙🚗
Progress on the Carolina Crossroads Project wouldn’t be possible without the dedicated crews working hard each day to rebuild and improve this vital corridor.
We appreciate their ongoing commitment to keeping South Carolina moving.
Over the past two years, we’ve made significant progress on Phase 2 of the Carolina Crossroads project.
This phase is now open and operational, delivering important improvements to safety, mobility, and overall traffic operations within the corridor.
As roads and bridges age, drivers may experience more vehicle wear and longer trips.
Carolina Crossroads will modernize 14 miles of the I-20/I-26/I-126 corridor, improving the quality of our roadways and our commutes.

Phase 3C is about improving I-20 from US 378 and Bush River Road, building the foundation for a modernized corridor by:
🚧Replacing the bridge over the Saluda River
🚧Replacing the bridge over the CSX railway
🚧Widening a portion I-20 to handle more traffic in the future
Lane weaving and aggressive driving = more crashes and traffic jams.
Carolina Crossroads is making big changes with fewer weaving movements and less congestion, creating a safer and smoother travel for everyone in the Midlands!
