The town of Bethune will soon see some significant and needed improvements at an important intersection in town. Mayor Charles McCoy announced during council’s Jan. 12 meeting that the town has received a grant for $650,000 from the S.C. Department of Transportation. The town has been working to have a stoplight installed at the intersection of U.S. 1 and SC 241; currently, the intersection, a four-way stop, has a caution light.
