Bypass Traffic Stalemate Prompts School Entrance Light Request
Parents urge a blinking light at Pine Log Road school entrance while highway officials warn no new roads can be built there. A morning Pine Log study from 1987 88 remains unpublished and no light exists. Officials consider extending the parking lot to Hitchcock Parkway near a kaolin mine, requiring mine operator consent. Rep Irene Rudnick and the Aiken County government push to explore all avenues to ease school traffic as the district reviews needs and plans a July budget.
