The project would entail extending the parkway from its location at S.C. Highway 9 in Horry County, South Carolina, across the North Carolina state line to U.S. 17 in Brunswick County near Shallotte, constructing a multilane full-access freeway.
The meeting will kick off with an open house from 5-6:30 p.m., during which time attendees may review project information, environmental documents and maps of all seven project alternatives. A formal presentation and public hearing will follow at 7 p.m.
The hearing will also be available online and by telephone by dialing (984) 204-1487 with conference ID: 513 946 767#.
The hearing in South Carolina has been scheduled 5-8 p.m. on Oct. 20 in North Strand Recreational Center, 120 State Highway 57 South, Longs. Virtual attendees may join the meeting here.
The hearings originally scheduled for last month were postponed due to coastal storms that churned off the East Coast and pushed heavy surf along much of the North Carolina coast.
