Construction Projects Cause Traffic Disruptions Across CSRA
2025-01-17

In various locations across the Central Savannah River Area (CSRA), ongoing construction activities are set to impact traffic flow. Residents and commuters should anticipate delays and closures in specific areas. Notably, changes in traffic management will occur in Waynesboro with the introduction of a new two-way stop, while North Augusta will experience temporary closures along part of the Greeneway near Boeckh Park. These adjustments aim to enhance infrastructure but may cause temporary inconveniences for drivers.

In Burke County, a significant change is scheduled for Friday morning. At 9 a.m., a new traffic control measure will be implemented at the intersection of Quaker Road and the recently constructed West Waynesboro Road Bypass. Drivers can expect to encounter new stop signs on Quaker Road. Local authorities advise motorists to exercise caution when navigating this area, as the installation of these signs marks a shift in traffic patterns. The primary goal of this adjustment is to improve safety and streamline traffic flow through the newly developed bypass route.

In North Augusta, residents and visitors will notice changes along the Greeneway, a popular recreational path. Starting at noon on Friday, a section of the Greeneway adjacent to Boeckh Park will be temporarily closed. This closure is necessary to facilitate the installation of curbs along the pathway. Although the disruption is expected to last only a few hours, users of the Greeneway should plan alternative routes during this period. The project aims to enhance the overall quality and safety of the trail for future use.

These construction efforts highlight the ongoing commitment to improving infrastructure in the CSRA. While temporary disruptions are inevitable, they pave the way for long-term benefits in terms of safer and more efficient transportation systems. Motorists and pedestrians alike are encouraged to stay informed about these changes and adjust their travel plans accordingly to minimize any inconvenience.
