Maybank Highway and Folly Road
on James Island
The City of Charleston has been working for many
years to improve the intersection of Folly Road and Maybank Highway
on James Island. Glatting Jackson’s solution provides a network
of options for drivers so that they will not have to depend on
one main intersection to get to their destination. As the image
shows, with good redevelopment, secondary streets through commercial
areas would give drivers ways to easily enter Folly Road from Maybank
Highway and vice versa.
These new redevelopments would also enhance the shopping
and dining options for residents in the Northern part of James
Island and for closeby West Ashley residents. New office space
could open up more local jobs. Residents would spend less time
in the traffic because of better driving choices and because they
would have access to more local, close by establishments. |
