As my wife and I were driving on Highway 378, I couldn’t help but wonder—how is it that 378 is four lanes most of the way from Columbia toward Myrtle Beach, but shrinks to two lanes once you hit Horry County and stays that way through nearly the entire county?
We are the fastest-growing county in South Carolina, welcoming millions of tourists every year, while our locals sit in constant traffic. Our infrastructure is decades behind.
If we want to keep up with growth, keep our roads safe, and keep traffic moving, it’s time we get our fair share of state dollars. We deserve better.
