Effective immediately, you can only make a right turn onto Lake Murray Boulevard from Woodrow Street. No more left turns onto Lake Murray Blvd or going straight through the intersection from Woodrow Street.
You also will not be able to turn left onto Woodrow Street from Lake Murray Boulevard. This change, which was recommended by the Irmo Town Council, is designed to increase traffic efficiency, reduce collisions and improve driver safety.
Irmo Police Chief, Booby Dale, stated, “This has been a long time coming. With the added median, we will see fewer collisions in this area. Some motorists could be inconvenienced by the ‘right turn only’ from Woodrow Street, but the new pattern is much safer than before. IPD officers will be monitoring the intersection and taking enforcement action as needed.”
