WRCOG Rural Long Range Transportation Plan Public Comment & Meeting

Begins: 10/20/2025 - 5:00 PM
Ends: 10/20/2025 - 6:00 PM

The Waccamaw Regional Council of Governments (WRCOG) is inviting public feedback on the draft 2045 Rural Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP).  WRCOG provides transportation planning for the rural areas of Georgetown, Horry, and Williamsburg counties, including the towns of Aynor, Andrews, Greeleyville, Hemingway, Kingstree, Lane, Stuckey, and the City of Loris.

The LRTP outlines a 20-year vision for the region’s multimodal transportation system.  It assesses current conditions, identifies future needs, and recommends improvements.  Public feedback, along with data analysis, helped identify transportation needs and priorities.  Projects were evaluated and ranked to create a fiscally constrained list of improvements, based on the $5 million in annual Regional Mobility Program funds allocated by SCDOT for rural transportation improvements in these counties.

Public Review and Comment Period
The draft plan is available for public review and comments through October 23, 2025.  It can be accessed online at www.wrcog.org or viewed in person at the WRCOG office, located at 1230 Highmarket Street, Georgetown, SC  29440.  Comments may be submitted by mail to Leigh Kane, Local Planning Services Director, at this address or emailed to LKane@wrcog.org.
