    It looks like the 205 B to University Blvd to N A D Road (overpass along the intersections Rivers Ave crosses over this, I could not see any height signs on), then I put in
    Goose Creek Veterinary Clinic
    501 Red Bank Rd, Goose Creek, SC 29445 You turn left onto this road.

    Then I put in
    2824 US-52
    Moncks Corner, SC 29461 which will put you on 52N again
    Then I put in
    XPO Logistics is on 1320 Garrott AVe.

    Follow Garrott Ave down to where you are going on all those lefts on Google Drive and Great Heron Dr.

    I didn't see Users Way, but did see The Faster Way, which could be a renamed road in that clutch.

    But it is better to check first before you take the plunge.

    This is one place that the entire load threatens to be a FUBAR. (dont ask what this means.. if you have not already.. google it..)

    Call Monocks Fire Dept, Call the Monocks Local Lawman or Sherriffs and work your way up when they understand you are a oversized with a permit route that does not work. If I cannot follow this pile on paper I cannot find this place. Even the address given gets tossed into dots that don't make sense or is not accurate to me on this end.

    Basically that permitted route is not comprehensible. Go as far as you can understand it exactly and then stop somewhere safe and involve the local law as described in the previous paragraph. Do not move a inch without everyone being exactly on the same page with you.

    On further examination, why not just roll fat and large right up US 52?

    Does the state delight in interfering with local govt operations when your oversize lumbers onto pavement two inches thick?

    It could be that you can't turn onto 52 is why they are keeping you on the roads, then eventually getting back on 52. A load stuck between lanes trying to turn just might not be the way to start a day. I think I would request a police escort also to keep the cars at bay.

    Did you figure it out yet? South is part of the name of the road. You might be tall or really heavy, so it wouldn’t help, but SC’s blanket permit is the only way to go and only takes about an hour to get

    Yea I have a blanket. But I was 14’11 tall. I turned right on 52 instead of left..... not sure why it had a left turn.... I’ll find out again next week when I do another... when I get my permit back I’ll compare it to this one
