Formally the World War II Memorial Bridge, the Northbridge spans the almost half mile distance along S.C. Highway 7 over the Ashley River connecting North Charleston and West Ashley.
The purpose of the Better Northbridge is to provide a safer alternative for walking and biking over the Ashley River enhancing connectivity between the communities of North Charleston and West Ashley. The Better Northbridge project is currently in the study phase.
Project Status:
The project team has been exploring funding opportunities and has submitted a RAISE Grant Application for fiscal year 2024. On June 26th, the Department of Transportation notified the RAISE grant award recipients, and unfortunately, our submission was not selected for an award this cycle. Next steps for this project will be determined by Council action.
