Effingham County has grown from approximately 52,000 residents in 2010 to over 76,000 today — a 45% increase that has transformed this once-rural county into one of the Savannah metro area’s busiest bedroom communities. With approximately 18,000 daily out-commuters and limited healthcare infrastructure within the county, Effingham residents face unique risks when accidents occur on the county’s strained road network.
The Georgia International Trade Center — a 1,150-acre industrial development — and proximity to the Port of Savannah are bringing more commercial truck traffic through Effingham’s roads. Combined with the Hyundai Metaplant’s projected 8,500-worker workforce, traffic conditions in Effingham County are expected to intensify significantly in coming years.
