NEWBERRY COUNTY, S.C. (WOLO)– South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) will reduce I-26 Westbound over the Palmetto Trail (mile marker 83) and over Indian Creek (mile marker 65) for bridge repairs.

The lane closure will begin on Monday, April 28, and SCDOT expects continuous, single-lane closures to last until the end of May.

Drivers should expect delays and seek alternate routes, if possible.
