Bridge over I-26 on schedule to open in October

Posted

The Rainbow Drive bridge in Springdale should be completed by October.

Chris Drive and Harbor Drive north of Leaphart Road and part of the Leaphart Road bridge over I-26 were closed by the Department of Transportation.

All of it should open in October, said Robert Power, an SCDOT resident construction engineer.

“October is the target for opening Rainbow as well as the remainder of the Leaphart bridge and Chris Drive and Harbor Drive.

“Wrap-up work will likely continue into November, but we anticipate both bridges opening in their final configuration by the end of October,” he said.

Power said weather and other unforeseen factors may delay the completion date.

Drivers who would normally use the Rainbow Drive bridge are being detoured on SC 602 (Platt Springs Road) and S-32-71.
