The South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) announced today its new 2021-2022 paving program, which will result in nearly 1,000 more miles of the state's roads being rehabilitated and resurfaced during the coming two years.

The paving program will be funded by an estimated $642 million of revenues from the state gas tax, which will increase an additional two cents effective July 1, 2021.
