Look for detours on Meyers Avenue and Yorkshire Parkway this Thursday and Friday

Attention, Myrtle Beach drivers... Look for detours on Meyers Avenue and Yorkshire Parkway this Thursday and Friday as a contractor installs textured crosswalks at that intersection. As shown on the attached maps, Thursday’s work will require a detour for traffic coming from Pampas Drive and Yorkshire. Friday’s work will require a detour for traffic coming from Farrow Parkway.

The stamped asphalt crosswalks will improve pedestrian safety in two ways. First, they will be more visible to motorists. Second, the stamped brick texture will provide an audible reminder to drivers about the pedestrian crossings. Signage and pavement markings will complete the improvements. Residents of nearby neighborhoods requested extra pedestrian safety alerts at this location.
