I-77 Exit 26 New Interchange & Connecting Roads

The South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) proposes to construct a new Interchange on I-77 to serve the future Scout Motors Manufacturing facility and provide access to promote future economic development in Blythewood, SC. The project includes a connector road from the proposed Exit 26 to US 21. Portions of US 21 are proposed be relocated to create a grade separated crossing for a new Norfolk Southern railroad spur line that will serve the Scout facility. A new railroad bridge over I-77 is proposed to provide rail access to the west side of I-77. In addition, widening of northbound I-77 from south of the proposed interchange to Blythewood Road as well as improvements along Community Road are planned.
