BERKELEY COUNTY, S.C.–Although the snow has stopped falling, many roads remain frozen with ice.

Berkeley County and SCDOT treated several roads Saturday to improve driving conditions. According to authorities, they placed salt brine along Cypress Gardens Road, Highway 402, Cainhoy Road and Oakley Road.

Crews with SCDOT are assisting by treating icy roads in Berkeley County, specifically Oakley Road, Cypress Gardens Road and Cainhoy Road. (Berkeley County Government)
