IRMO, S.C. — A traffic pattern change is in store for the intersection of Woodrow Street and Lake Murray Boulevard, The Town of Irmo announced on it's Facebook page
As work on the intersection continues, officials say that the transition from Woodrow Street to Lake Murray Blvd has become increasingly dangerous for motorists.
"Effective immediately, you can ONLY make a RIGHT turn onto Lake Murray Boulevard from Woodrow Street. No more left turns onto LMB or going straight through the intersection from Woodrow Street. You also will not be able to turn left onto Woodrow Street from Lake Murray Boulevard. This change, which was recommended by the Irmo Town Council, is designed to increase traffic efficiency, reduce collisions and improve driver safety, " according to the release.
Officials say if you take the old route through this intersection, you'll need to adapt and give yourself a few extra minutes.
