Post and Courier: Keeping traffic going

From Post and Courier:

By 2030, Charleston traffic could be as thick as the current congestion in Atlanta unless the state road building program keeps pace with expected population growth, according to a study released Wednesday.  Vehicle travel in South Carolina increased 49 percent from 1990 to 2007, and it is expected to grow another 45 percent by 2025. The state's population, 4.48 million in 2008, increased 28 percent since 1990, and is expected to grow another 15 percent by 2030, says the The Road Information Project, a national nonprofit transportation research group.
