I know we have occasional threads about this perma project. And some on here seem to have some real insight on what is actually going on with it. What is the latest projection for completion? I drive this stretch at 4Am and 3 to 4PM which should both be prime times for workers be out there in mass but they almost never are. Usually there will be about 10 people working, usually pouring the middle wall around mile marker 92 or so. And the rest of the stretch of barricades has zero activity. When I ride to Columbia I'm amazed how much faster the widening is going between Newberry and Columbia on 26. There are so many workers on that project they look like ants.

At least they did go ahead and open the section on 85 from the Broad River to the NC line but they seem years and years away on the remaining section given the lack of resources thrown at it. I get sick of Columbia and Charleston Projects getting all the priority. Our politicians from the upstate must be hacks into getting plugged into the good ole boy political network.
