Highway Planning We’re Driving into the Next Century Now
Aiken County Administrator Scott Barnes leads long range highway planning with ARTS to qualify roads for federal funds. The Bobby Jones Expressway expansion from Beech Island to I-20 could reshape development, land use, and tax costs, with interchanges at Schultz Hill and potential others shaping commerce and growth through the century. The plan also notes zoning gaps, the possibility of a commuter airport, and estimates $2,000 in planning to yield about $100,000,000 in county benefits by century’s end.
