COLUMBIA, S.C. — Drivers heading west on Interstate 20 toward Columbia, South Carolina, will run into overnight paving work in Kershaw County early next week. The South Carolina Department of Transportation plans to shut the right lane and both ramps at Exit 87, the White Pond Road interchange, on Monday and Tuesday nights.
The closures start at 7 p.m. each evening and last until 6 a.m. the next morning, beginning Nov. 16. Cold weather could push the schedule back, the agency said.
Westbound traffic that needs Exit 87 will be sent ahead to Exit 82, where drivers can turn around and come back east on I-20 to reach the interchange. Anyone on White Pond Road trying to get onto I-20 west will be routed along Whitling Way to Exit 92 instead.
SCDOT is asking drivers to ease off the gas and stay alert in the work zone while crews are on the road.
