SC 188 re-striped after patching project

New stripes on a three and one-third mile stretch of highway 188 in Oconee County is being seen as a sign that there are no imminent plans to re-surface the two-lane roadway.  A contractor recently patched the stretch of highway as part of a rehabilitative maintenance project.  Josh Makison, resident DOT construction engineer, says his office is unaware of any plans to re-pave the roadway in the next few years, though there could be something planned by Columbia headquarters about which he is not aware.
