Phase II of the Hwashin industrial access road is about to begin.

The Greenville City Council approved a bid of $959,108 to APAC-Southeast, Inc. of Andalusia on Monday night. The bid package includes adding turn lanes on U.S. Highway 31 for access to the Hwashin America plant, as well as constructing a new road along the north side of the plant itself.

&#8220This is part of the incentives we used to get Hwashin to Greenville,” said Mayor Dexter McLendon.

Additionally, McLendon said U.S. 31 in front of Hwashin would also be widened which should help traffic flow.
