MYRTLE BEACH – U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, members of the I-73 Association and North Eastern Strategic Alliance (NESA) met in a press conference Friday to discuss the impact of I-73 on the state.

The interstate's route takes it to Michigan and runs 90 miles through four South Carolina counties at a cost of $2 billion.

It will be the first interstate link to Myrtle Beach, the heart of the state's $16 billion tourism industry.

A study released in January 2009 suggested that building the South Carolina leg of I-73 could create thousands of jobs and generate more than $1 billion in household income during the five-year construction.
