COLUMBIA, S.C. - The state Transportation Commission has unanimously approved an agreement with North Carolina on connection points for Interstates 73 and 74.

There was little discussion when the resolution was approved at a meeting here Thursday.

The agreement requires North Carolina to build a 3.7-mile connection to Interstate 73 near South Carolina state Highway 38.

South Carolina will build about a five-mile link to Interstate 74 from the Carolina Bays Parkway in Horry County.

North Carolina's DOT board is to take up the resolution March 3.
