The Grand Strand Area Transportation Study Metropolitan Planning Organization (GSATS) conducted a transportation study for the Holden Beach Causeway corridor. This study was selected for funding through GSATS’ Local Direct Attributable (DA) funds program. The study area consisted of Holden Beach Road (NC 130)—commonly referred to as the Holden Beach Causeway—from the intersection of Holden Beach Road (NC 130) and Sabbath Home Road (SR 1120) to the Atlantic Intra-Coastal Waterway in Brunswick County. Bolton & Menk studied parking, traffic, and safety along the corridor, as well as potential beautification enhancements and the possibility of establishing public parking within the NCDOT right-of-way. This study helped guide GSATS, the Town of Holden Beach, and NCDOT Division 3 with road improvements and redevelopment plans.
