​Columbia, South Carolina - The South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) is scheduled to close and detour Arrowwood Road from the intersection Lawand Drive to the intersection of Gracern Road. The road will be closed starting Monday, January 9, 2023, at 7:00 a.m. to allow contractors to perform utility work and bridge construction. The road will reopen Monday, January 30, 2023, by 7:00 a.m.

Motorists should watch signs for detour information and are encouraged to avoid the area by taking an alternate route during the closure.

These construction activities are part of the Carolina Crossroads Phase 1 project in Richland and Lexington Counties. The project includes improvements to the exit ramp to US 378 from I-26 eastbound and associated interstate widening in Lexington County and a full access interchange at Colonial Life Boulevard at I-126 in Richland County. The purpose of this project is to provide traffic access to and from I-26 and I-126 to Colonial Life Blvd., allowing for closure of the existing on and off ramps that access I-26 from Bush River Road.
