Take the Seabrook Island Road Mixed-Use Pathway Survey!

The Town of Seabrook Island maintains two joint use pathways on Seabrook Island Road. The pathway on the INBOUND lane is approximately five (5) feet in width and runs from Bohicket Marina to Landfall Way. The pathway on the OUTBOUND lane is approximately ten (10) feet wide and extends from the SIPOA Security Gate all the way to Freshfields Village.

To identify and address safety issues along both pathways – particularly related to pavement condition, flooding, visibility and accessibility – Seabrook Island Town Council commissioned a study by a local engineering firm, ESP Associates, in the fall of 2020. Over several months, ESP conducted multiple site visits in order to analyze the existing conditions along both pathways. Their findings were summarized in Mixed-Use Path Evaluation report which was provided to Town Council in March.

Members of Town Council reviewed and discussed the consultant’s findings and recommendations during its April Ways & Means Committee meeting. While Town Council remains committed to maintaining and upgrading the outbound pathway between the SIPOA Security Gate and Freshfields Village, concerns were expressed about the cost-effectiveness of continuing to maintain the inbound pathway, particularly given its age, susceptibility to flooding, pavement condition and limited usage in comparison to the outbound pathway.

Before making any decisions on whether – or how – to proceed with the inbound pathway, Town Council has elected to solicit public feedback on the following three options:

• OPTION #1: Remove and reconstruct the inbound pathway. Estimated Cost: $267,300

• OPTION #2: Remove and abandon the inbound pathway. Estimated Cost: $148,500+

• OPTION #3: Repair the inbound pathway in place. Estimated Cost: TBD
