Construction to cause lane closures, traffic delays on Clemson Road

July 17, 2019

Motorists in Northeast Richland County are encouraged to find alternate routes to avoid daylong lane closures related to construction this week on Clemson Road.

Significant traffic delays are anticipated Thursday, July 18 and Friday, July 19 as crews work to install utilities and drainage pipes across the roadway, according to Richland County transportation officials.

The roadwork is part of a project that involves widening Clemson Road from two to five lanes from Old Clemson Road to Sparkleberry Crossing, with shared-used paths for cyclists and pedestrians between Old Clemson Road and Chimneyridge Drive.
