RIDGEVILLE, SC (WCSC) - The South Carolina Department of Transportation is asking for public input on a plan widen I-26 from exit 194 to exit 187 at Ridgeville.

The meeting will have a drop-in format with project displays available and residents will be able to provide written comments.
Thursday’s meeting is from 5 p.m -7 p.m at the Ridgeville Community Center located at 105 School Street.
