Hurricane & Holiday Alerts
- Hurricane Evacuation: During mandatory evacuations, I-26 westbound and US-501 become "contraflow" routes using all lanes for outbound traffic. Always check cameras to verify evacuation flow.
- Malfunction Junction (Columbia): The I-26/I-20/I-126 interchange is the state's primary bottleneck; check these cameras before any cross-Midlands trip.
- Beach Turnover Saturdays: Rental check-ins in Myrtle Beach and Hilton Head create extreme congestion on US-501 and US-278 between 10:00 AM and 3:00 PM.
- Bridge Icing: While rare, elevated bridge decks like the Don Holt and Ravenel bridges freeze rapidly during occasional "wintry mix" events.
