COLUMBIA, S.C. (WOLO)– South Carolina Transportation Secretary Christy Hall has announced she will retire after nearly 30 years with the state’s Department of Transportation.
Hall who has served as Secretary of Transportation for about 10 years since she was appointed by former Governor Nikki Haley is set to retire on March 31, 2024.
Since graduating from Clemson University’s civil engineering program Hall was able to serve in a variety of roles ranging from front line experience in design, project management and more before going into district and headquarters leadership roles like Secretary of Transportation and others.
“It has been an honor and a privilege to work alongside the men and women of the S.C. Department of Transportation to serve the people of South Carolina. I am thankful to Governor Haley, Governor McMaster and the SCDOT Commission for the opportunity to serve as the agency head during the past decade when South Carolina has experienced unprecedented levels of road and bridge work in every county of the state,” Secretary of Transportation Christy A. Hall, P.E. stated.
Secretary Hall is known for developing and leading the strategic SCDOT 10-year plan.
“Secretary Hall will be remembered as one of the greatest transportation secretaries in state history. Her unparalleled expertise and relentless work ethic have allowed SCDOT to flourish under her leadership. Whether responding to natural disasters or spearheading transformative infrastructure projects, she has consistently delivered for the people of South Carolina. She leaves a legacy of excellence and has placed the agency in a position to continue to drive our state forward,” Governor Henry McMaster said.
