AS PASSED BY THE SENATE

March 28, 2001

    S. 404

Introduced by Senators McConnell, Ravenel, Ford, Passailaigue, Branton and Grooms

S. Printed 3/28/01--S.

Read the first time March 1, 2001.

TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE I-526 BRIDGE AND INTERCHANGE THAT SPANS U.S. HIGHWAY 17 AND U.S. HIGHWAY 7 IN CHARLESTON COUNTY AS THE "BOB HARRELL BRIDGE AND INTERCHANGE" IN HONOR OF THIS DISTINGUISHED SOUTH CAROLINIAN.

    Amend Title To Conform

Whereas, Robert W. Harrell, Sr. is a prominent and respected business and civic leader in Charleston who has contributed greatly to the Charleston community over a long and distinguished career; and

Whereas, as a successful businessman whose place of business is located in close proximity to this bridge location, Mr. Harrell has earned the respect and admiration of all those with whom he has contact; and

Whereas, he has been especially active in transportation matters and has worked in many capacities to improve transportation in Charleston and in South Carolina. He was instrumental in the development of I-526 known as the Mark Clark Expressway and twice served as a South Carolina Highway Commissioner from the First Congressional District; and

Whereas, the members of the General Assembly believe it would be a fitting tribute to this outstanding individual to name the I-526 bridge and interchange that spans U. S. Highway 17 and U. S. Highway 7 in his honor. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, hereby request that the Department of Transportation name the I-526 bridge and interchange that spans U.S. Highway 17 and U.S. Highway 7 in Charleston County as the "Bob Harrell Bridge and Interchange" in honor of this distinguished South Carolinian and install appropriate markers or signs at this bridge as the Department of Transportation considers appropriate.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
