Project Status

As of April 2007 construction of Phase II of the Palmetto Parkway is well under way. At this point, permits that allow for clearing, grubbing, and earth disturbing activities have been acquired for work spanning from US-1 to immediately south of I-20. The contractors hope to be permitted for the entire project by mid-May or early June 2007. Further permits must be applied for later in the project in order to begin paving.

Construction has mandated that a number of detours be built in order to provide citizens with alternative driving routes until work is complete.

Latest Updates

June 2008

Roadway construction continues along I-520 as well as at Clearwater Road. Currently there is a significant amount of activity going on at the I-20/I-520/US-25 interchange and along Laurel Lakes Drive. Whitehall Road was reopened to traffic. The widening of US-25 south of I-20 began this past month.
Bridge construction continues at Clearwater Road, Ascauga Lake Road and the I-20 interchange. The work at the various bridge sites is moving along as scheduled without any major delays. Pile driving and foundation work continues on the new US-25 Bridge that will cross over I-20. The beams were set across Atomic Road this past month and work has begun on the deck.

There are several noteworthy activities scheduled to occur during the month of June:

Beams will be set across Atomic Road during the month of June. This activity will require that traffic on Atomic Road be stopped periodically and will result in some delays for the motoring public.
Traffic will be shifted onto the new alignment of Clearwater Road during the early part of July.
