SC-153 Extension Opens to Traffic Tuesday Afternoon in Pickens County

Following a ribbon cutting ceremony, a 4.5 mile extension of SC 153 from the current terminus at 153 and US 123 near Easley to the Saluda Dam Road area is scheduled to be ready for traffic around 4 pm Tuesday, after years of planning and construction.

The 153 extension project cost approximately $20 million, and will serve as “a traffic alleviator” for motorists between Pickens, Powdersville, and I-85.
