Charleston County Council approves $3 million for I-526
Charleston County is moving forward on the plan to extend Interstate 526 into Johns and James islands.
Charleston County Council approved Tuesday to allocate around $3 million for preliminary work on the I-526 extension road plan. The money could come from two half-cent sales tax referendums, which voters approved in 2004 and 2016.
Council members approved the appropriation 7-2, with councilmen Henry Darby and Dickie Schweers voting against it.
