Bumper to bumper traffic backs up for miles Saturday, along U.S. 278 between Bluffton and Hilton Head Island, S.C. After 99 accidents along that stretch of four lane high-way in July, local officials are asking the Department of Transportation to allocate $26.6 million to help widen U.S. 278 to six lanes for about 20 miles from Interstate 95 to the bridges to the island.
