Sea Pines Circle construction rescheduled due to rainy weeknights. When it’ll start

Paving work on Sea Pines Circle on Hilton Head Island’s south end has been rescheduled.

Crews were supposed to start overnight lane closures on Monday, but had to stop work due to the rain, according to Assistant Town Manager Josh Gruber.

The work will now start at 9 p.m. on Sunday and go for nearly two weeks.

All construction work will take place overnight between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m.

During construction, lanes will be closed and crews will be routing traffic around the circle.

The S.C. Department of Transportation is responsible for the paving work, which will eliminate potholes and inconsistencies in the pavement in both lanes around the circle.

Construction will continue until March 19. The end date for the construction has not changed, according to Gruber.
