We the undersign affirm that we need immediate action to improve the Jasper County intersection of US Hwy 17 & SC Hwy 315.

We need to expedite the schedule to widen US Hwy 17 and a traffic light is needed since it may take years before any improvements are completed.

Concerned citizens:

I live 5 Miles from the intersection and have traveled this route to Savannah over 40 years and have seen many accidents with Death and Injuries. During rush hours, I have seen on average 60 autos waiting on Hwy 315 to turn left on Hwy 17. At one point the total increased to 170 Autos which would be a 40 min. wait. This is due to travelers working in one state and living in another. Also, the traffic from Savannah is traveling to Hardeeville to travel North on I-95. This is not just a Jasper County problem since most of the traffic is between Beaufort County and Savannah. We are trying to scheduled a meeting with SC. DOT in early Oct. Please help notify everyone to please sign this petition using the below web address.
