At the May 16 SCDOT Commission meeting, Commissioners approved investment levels and 727 miles of ranked projects for inclusion in the FY24-25 pavement program.
In the upcoming fiscal year, $719 million will be invested in pavements. A breakdown of funding by category is below:
- Interstates: $150 million
- Primary Roads: $347 million
- Farm-to-Market Secondaries: $140 million
- Neighborhood Streets: $82 million
Funding for primary roads, farm-to-market secondaries, and neighborhood streets is allocated at the county level. These allocations are based on the county’s relative share of lane miles in each system.
Commissioners approved these funding levels and ranked project lists for reconstruction and rehabilitation of Primaries, Farm to Market Secondaries, and Neighborhood Streets for inclusion in the FY24-25 program.
The proposed projects are open for a 21-day public comment period. Any substantive comments will be provided to the Commission for its consideration. Barring any substantive comments, the projects will be incorporated into the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP).
