(Seneca, SC)——-The South Carolina Department of Transportation has announced that lane closures along the interstates are being prohibited for non-emergency highway work during the Labor Day holiday travel period.
The restrictions will be in place from 6am this Friday, August 30th through 6am next Tuesday, September 3rd.
