Traffic signal light repairs will affect eight Beaufort intersections over the next three months and lane closures are expected.
The South Carolina Department of Transportation upgrades began Tuesday at Broad River Boulevard and Joe Frazier Road and will continue for the next 12 weeks, weather permitting.

Motorists are advised to use caution in the work zones.
The intersections are:
- Broad River Blvd at Joe Frazier Road/Colonial Avenue.
- Robert Smalls Parkway at Castle Rock Road.
- Savannah Highway at Robert Smalls Parkway.
- Parris Island Gateway at Mink Point Boulevard.
- Ribaut Roard at Duke Street.
- Ribaut Road at North Street.
- Ribaut Road at Reynolds Street.
- Ribaut Road at Mossy Oaks Road and Johnny Morrall Circle.
Work will occur on weekdays from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
W.M. Roebuck, Inc., which does traffic light installations and repairs, is doing the work.
