州长亨利·麦克马斯特(Henry McMaster)正在寻求11亿美元的新资金, 用于南卡罗来纳州的交通项目, Governor Henry McMaster is seeking $1.1 billion in new funding for South Carolina’s transportation projects to combat rising construction costs, inflation, and infrastructure strain. 这项请求是2026-27年预算的一部分,目的是在人口增长和全国公路费用增加66%的情况下,维持主要道路和桥梁项目的进展。 The request, part of the 2026-27 budget, aims to maintain progress on major road and bridge projects amid population growth and a 66% national increase in highway costs. SCDOT警告说,如果没有额外资金,项目可能会延误,因为国家的燃料税已经损失了大量价值。 SCDOT warns that without additional funds, project delays are likely, as the state’s fuel tax has lost significant value. 这笔资金将支助I-26、I-95、I-85和I-77的不断扩展,以及桥梁维修和新的国家间发展。 The funding would support ongoing expansions of I-26, I-95, I-85, and I-77, as well as bridge repairs and new interstate development.
