Road Improvement and Development Effort
Road Improvement and Development Effort or RIDE is a plan for road projects in Horry County, South Carolina, including Carolina Bays Parkway, Veterans Highway and Robert Grissom Parkway. The first phase, costing $1.1 billion, is being paid for by hospitality taxes. The second phase, called RIDE II, is being paid for through a one-cent sales tax approved by Horry County voters November 7, 2006.〔Tritten, Travis, "1-penny road tax debated: Council puts RIDE funds back on table," ''The Sun News'', June 21, 2006.〕〔Tritten, Travis, "Horry readies RIDE 2: Finances, schedule must be settled," ''The Sun News'', December 17, 2006.〕〔Tritten, Travis, "RIDE 2 moves to review after 2nd phase released," ''The Sun News'', April 26, 2006.〕 RIDE III is being planned as of 2013.〔
==History==
In 1996, South Carolina voters turned down a one-cent sales tax for roads, and Buck Limehouse, the state's first DOT Commission chairman, started the State Infrastructure Bank. Commission member Gary Loftus became the first chairman of RIDE, which came up with the list of Horry County projects to use money from the bank. In the years 1995 through 2002, the state completed 27 years worth of road projects at a cost of $5 billion, including the RIDE projects.〔Wilson, Zane, "Officials cheer new DOT director," ''The Sun News'', May 3, 2007.〕 The Fantasy Harbour Bridge, opened in July 2009, was the last RIDE project.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Who Benefits From Tourism? Infrastructure )
A 2.5 percent accommodations tax, and a 1.5 percent prepared foods tax, funds the first phase of RIDE. Three-fifths of the tax goes to RIDE projects, with the remainder for public safety, public works and infrastructure relating to tourism.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Finance Department: Horry County Government )〕〔
The Horry County Council created the RIDE II Committee on April 17, 2001. It included 11 voting members plus the chairman of the S.C. DOT. The committee's purpose is to advise the county and state of road needs, study funding methods, and review projects under construction.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=RIDE II Committee )

The original list of projects included the northern section of Carolina Bays Parkway but did not provide funding for the southern section.〔"Building Stopped: Horry council acts boldly to protect parkway path," '' The Sun News'', March 19, 2007.〕 The first list for RIDE 2 released in April 2006, included 10 projects.〔 After the approval of a one-cent sales tax on November 7, 2006, the list included 15 projects totalling $425 million. The biggest of these were an interchange on U.S. Highway 17 next to the former Myrtle Beach Air Force Base, the widening of S.C. 707, and a bypass for Aynor.〔 Also included was the paving of International Drive from Grissom Parkway to S.C. 90, providing an alternate route to Carolina Forest.〔It's Our Road, Not DNR's," ''The Sun News'', December 16, 2007.〕
The One-Cent Capital Projects Sales Tax began on May 1, 2007 and will last up to seven years, generating $425,307,500; if the tax produces that amount before the seven years end, it will be dropped.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Riding On A Penny )
On November 7, 2011, Myrtle Beach city council member Wayne Gray asked area elected officials to consider using RIDE funds to pay for a portion of I-73. One possibility was to continue the RIDE I tax past 2023.
Nine of 15 RIDE II projects were under way or finished as a groundbreaking was held November 6, 2013 for the final section of Carolina Bays Parkway and the S.C. 707 widening.
