VIDEO: Deputies: Hwy. 17 at Main Rd. to remain closed


[People on Johns Island got a glimpse at normalcy
 Saturday afternoon when Main Road and
thereafter Chisolm Rd. was closed... along with their
low riding bridge.
Now, It's closed at 6 p.m. for high tide.

You'll have to check your tide chart
if you need to go to work or school.

 Some crews were pumping the water as high-tide
approached,
 the water was coming too fast so....they laid down
50 pounds bags of concrete to create a wall that
 might wash some of the concrete down the
sewer to cause blockage? What?
 The road is not permanently open...again didn't they just
 have a similar issue....storm that flooded and cause the
 Limehouse bridge to close/opened, or is it,
open/close etc....oh yea, it's
called high tide...low tide! klsb 10/8/2015]

orders near two rising rivers.
"They got hit the first time and they survived it and they think
 they're okay," she warned. "But this is another hit coming."
