Once the doors are officially opened, The Women’s Center of Bluffton Hospital will offer robotic surgery for patients needing gynecological surgery.
Very soon, walker, joggers and bikers will have their own path along Augsburger Road.
Work started this week on an Augsburger Road pathway that will resolve a major safety issue. When finished, it will be a 10-foot wide asphalt pathway completely separate from Augsburger Road.
The pathway extends from Bentley Road (north side of Augsburger), to the Bluffton University nature preserve, Riverbend and Maple Crest. A completion date is Oct. 31.
