The South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) is working with G5 Sponsorships to invite organizations to sponsor the state’s 511 Traveler Information System, Rest Areas, Welcome Centers, and the State Highway Emergency Program (SHEP).
The revenues will help fund state safety and transportation programs that provide services such as changing flat tires, providing gasoline to those who have run out and support and assistance to emergency response teams during incidents.
Sponsorship includes the ability to affix sponsor logos on 511 signs within the restricted right-of-way of South Carolina’s busiest highways, including I-95.
“We are offering holistic sponsorship packages that bring maximum value to South Carolina and the sponsors,” said G5 Sponsorships’ chief operating officer Matt Hamill in a news release. “511 is a tremendous resource for drivers, providing real-time updates on traffic conditions. We are looking forward to working with private sector sponsors as partners in providing traffic information that saves drivers time and fuel, reduces stress and enhances safety.”
The 511 system is designated as the nation’s source for free, real-time information about traffic conditions, construction delays and other incidents affecting travel times and can be reached by calling 511 or visiting the 511 website for each state.
