Delivering the ACT 98 Program

Resurfacing

Bridges

Interstates

21

Delivering the ACT 98 Program: Resurfacing SCDOT’s Non Federal Aid Resurfacing program has been more

than doubled with ACT 98 resurfacing.

Actual Revenues ($60M) are trending ahead of forecast ($41M).

$55M in ACT 98 resurfacing projects are under contract.

Another $43M of ACT 98 resurfacing is planned to go to contract between now and February 2015.

Every county in the state will receive ACT 98 resurfacing dollars.

22

Delivering the ACT 98 Program: Bridges $50M set aside to serve as match for 2 years of Federal Aid

bridge projects. Currently, SCDOT has utilized approximately 50% of the 1st year’s match allocation.

SCDOT redirected it’s previously planned matching dollars back into the bridge program.

The “cascaded funds” have enabled $25M in construction to begin on 33 bridge projects to address load restricted or closed bridges spread out across the Districts by the end of this calendar year.

27 additional projects are planned to be let in Jan/Feb 2015.

23

Delivering the ACT 98 Program: Interstates Annual allocation of $50M to be leveraged via the SCTIB for an

estimated $550M in available state resources.

I-85 / I-385 Interchange in Greenville I-77 widening from I-20 to Killian Road in Richland I-20 widening from Longs Pond Road to US 378 in Lexington I-85 widening from Gossett Rd to SC 18 in Cherokee and

Spartanburg Counties Design work on the last phase of I-85 widening to near NC state

line, I-20/I-26/I-126 interchange in Columbia and other projects yet to be identified in order to develop “projects on the shelf”.

24

Delivering the ACT 98 Program: Interstates The largest of the ACT 98 Interstate projects has been awarded for

construction: I-85 / I-385 Interchange upgrade. It includes $80M of ACT 98 funds and is the 2nd largest contract in SCDOT history.

Partnering with FHWA has enabled 6-9 months of acceleration on the I-20 & I-77 projects. The Requests for Proposals for both projects are expected to be released to the design-build arena between Summer and Fall of next year.

Preparatory work is underway on the complicated I-85 widening project. First Public Meeting on the project is planned for this November in order engage the public on this significant project.

Delivering the ACT 98 Program: Summary Resurfacing: Original target of $41M per year. Currently

have $55M on the streets now with plans to grow it to $100M by February. More to follow based on revenues.

Bridges: Original target of 90 “cascaded” bridges over a 2-3 year period. Currently have 33 bridge projects underway with plans to grow it to 60 bridge replacement projects by February.

Interstates: Largest ACT 98 enabled project, I-85/I-385, is under construction. I-20 & I-77 have been accelerated. First Public Meeting on the complex I-85 project is in 2 months.
