West Columbia sits across the Congaree River from the state capital, with approximately 17,500 residents. The city experienced a 16% population growth between 2010 and 2020 as lower property taxes and new commercial development attracted residents from Columbia proper. This growth has intensified traffic on I-26, US-1, and Sunset Boulevard — roads that were already carrying near-capacity volumes. The I-26 interchanges at Broad River Road and Bush River Road are among the most congested in the Midlands.
