Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, North Myrtle Beach, SC

The Coast Guard has issued a temporary deviation from the operating schedule that governs the Little River Bridge, across the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AICW), mile 347.3, at North Myrtle Beach, SC. South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) requested the Coast Guard consider placing the swing bridge on weekday scheduled openings at designated times to assist with vehicle congestion. This deviation will test a change to the drawbridge operation schedule to determine whether a permanent change to the schedule is needed. The Coast Guard is seeking comments from the public regarding these changes.
