There will be two temporarily road closures in Evans on Saturday, April 27 due to the Run Hard 5k.
Antebellum Way and Evans Town Center Boulevard from Ronald Regan Drive to Antebellum Way will be closed to all traffic starting at 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. on Saturday, April 27.
During this time, deputies will be at the intersection of Evans to Locks Road at Evans Towne Center Boulevard and the intersection of Evans to Locke Road at North Belair Road to control traffic.
“The purpose of closing the roadway is to reduce pedestrian/vehicle conflicts for the event,” said a press release from Columbia County. “Pedestrian traffic is expected to be extremely high in that area, as well as the areas surrounding Evans Towne Center Park, especially during ingress and egress times. When driving in this area please pay attention to your surroundings at all times, obey all traffic control devices unless instructed by law enforcement to do otherwise, and stay alert for pedestrians, especially children, darting out into the roadway unexpectedly. Pedestrians are asked to cross at marked mid-block pedestrian crosswalks and/or intersections with marked pedestrian crossings unless instructed differently by law enforcement.”
