SIPOA owns and maintains approximately 28 miles of roads behind the gate on Seabrook Island. Many of these roads were first paved in the 1970s. These roads are an asset that must be managed in a cost-effective manner.

This summer, as part of the engineering intern program, we documented the history of the management of SIPOA roads and outlined future management plans in the SIPOA Roadway Management Plan storymap. This storymap is an interactive tool that residents can use to learn more about SIPOA roadways.

Steve Hirsch, SIPOA Director of Engineering, will present on current management practices as well as discuss future repaving plans at the next Get the Scoop meeting at the Lake House.
