The South Carolina Department of Transportation will temporarily close and detour part of Atomic Road in Aiken County for bridge repairs beginning Jan. 6.
The closures are expected to last until August.
As part of this closure, a detour route has been put in place. A detour map was provided on social media by North Augusta Public Safety on Dec. 23.
Both the northbound and southbound sites of Atomic Road will be closed at the bridge sites during construction.
Atomic Road will be open to local traffic only except at the bridge sites.
SCDOT encourages drivers to slow down and pay attention to signs and crews when driving through work zones.
