📵 April is National Distracted Driving Awareness Month, a time to promote safer driving habits and to help reduce traffic collisions caused by distracted driving.

In 2025, the Hands-Free and Distracted Driving Act was signed into law, establishing stricter penalties for distracted drivers. Keep yourself and others safe - put your phone down while driving. 📵

At the southbound crossing over Tearcoat Branch, work is underway to fix a dip in the road near mile point 128 on I-95 southbound in Clarendon County.

Crews are installing new supports under the bridge and will carefully lift the roadway back to its original level, creating a smoother and safer ride.

The project is expected to be finished by the end of summer 2026.

“Safe actions save lives.”

That is the key message of this year’s National Work Zone Awareness Week. Use this message as a reminder to pay attention as you approach a work zone, remove distractions and slow your vehicle.

In 2023, 899 people were killed in work zone crashes nationwide. Most of these fatalities were drivers, their passengers and pedestrians. By traveling safely through a work zone you’re not only protecting our workers, you’re protecting your life as well.

Every cone tells a story and every worker deserves to go home safely.

This National Work Zone Awareness Week, slow down, stay alert, and give crews the space they need to do their jobs. One moment of caution can save a life.

🚧 Drive like it matters. Because it does.

🚧 On SC 412 in Anderson County, SCDOT and its partners are replacing an existing bridge with a box culvert. The switch was necessary after utility partners determined that overhead lines could not be relocated. In this case, a box culvert performs just as efficiently as a new bridge. The project is expected to be completed later this year. 🚧

We're midway through National Work Zone Awareness Week, and today, we're celebrating our team members who are on the job every day in work zones.

Today is Go Orange Day. Wear orange today to show your support!

Pay attention when you spot the color orange while driving. Orange is the color of caution and is the primary color used in traffic safety devices such as cones, barrels and work zone signs - all of which are designed to keep you and our workers safe.

It’s National Work Zone Awareness Week and Governor McMaster has issued a proclamation recognizing the annual observance to encourage safe driving in work zones.
