IOP Connector Road Widening Project Underway in Mt. Pleasant

Isle of Palms Connector Road Widening Project Map 
CLICK HERE ~ See All Homes For Sale!Charleston County and the Town of Mount Pleasant are executing a project that should help ease seasonal traffic on the Isle of Palms and Sullivan's Island.  No changes will be made to the bridge portion of the IOP Connector.  However, on the Mount Pleasant side, the Connector will be widened, allowing improved ingress and egress in the busy season.  A project schedule is not available at this time.

The proposed IOP Connector Project would widen the non-bridge portion of the Isle of Palms Connector to accommodate additional traffic in each direction as well as improvements at the Rifle Range Road intersection near Ravens Run, to improve congestion of daily traffic.  The project area runs from U.S. 17 North to Riviera Drive in Seaside Farms Mount Pleasant. Click here for details regarding Charleston County's project.
