SERVING THE CROSSTOWN FROM OUR CHARLESTON OFFICE

Personal Injury Lawyer Serving The Crosstown, Charleston

Q: Why are Crosstown accidents so severe?

The Crosstown carries highway-speed traffic (45-55 mph) through a densely populated urban area. This combination of high speeds and frequent cross-traffic produces severe T-bone, head-on, and pedestrian collisions that result in catastrophic injuries at rates far higher than typical city streets.

Q: Can I file a claim if road design on The Crosstown caused my accident?

Yes. If inadequate road design — such as missing pedestrian crossings, confusing lane markings, or insufficient lighting — contributed to your accident, the government entity responsible (SCDOT or the City of Charleston) may be liable under the South Carolina Tort Claims Act.

Q: What types of injuries are common in Crosstown accidents?

Due to the high speeds involved, Crosstown accidents frequently cause traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, multiple fractures, and fatalities. These severe injuries require experienced legal representation to ensure full compensation for long-term medical needs and life impacts.

About The Crosstown

Population: ~3,500

The Crosstown — formally Septima Clark Parkway and part of US-17 — is the multi-lane highway bisecting the lower Charleston peninsula. This high-speed road cutting through dense residential neighborhoods creates one of the city’s most dangerous corridors for both vehicle occupants and pedestrians attempting to cross between communities.

Roden Law’s Charleston office handles personal injury claims arising from Crosstown accidents, including high-speed vehicle collisions, pedestrian crashes, truck accidents, and incidents at the Lockwood Drive interchange. Our attorneys understand the severity of injuries from highway-speed collisions in an urban environment and fight for maximum compensation.

Dangerous Roads & Intersections in The Crosstown

The Crosstown (US-17/Septima Clark Parkway) is a multi-lane divided highway cutting through the Charleston peninsula that generates severe high-speed collisions including head-on crashes in crossover accidents. The Crosstown at Hagood Avenue sees dangerous merging from vehicles entering and exiting the Citadel Mall area and the Joe Riley Stadium complex. The Lockwood Drive and Crosstown interchange creates a complex multi-lane junction with frequent confusion-related accidents. Pedestrian crossings of the Crosstown are extremely dangerous due to wide lanes, high speeds, and limited crossing infrastructure dividing neighborhoods on either side.
