 Creation: I-585 opened about 1960 as new freeway construction. Early planning documents had this designated as I-385 first.
Adjustments: None
Improvements: 4-laned at inception.
Comment: I-585 is now posted north of I-85 Business at the Valley Falls Rd exit and the USC-Upstate exit. Although posted as TO I-585 on BGSs for I-85 proper, there are I-585 SOUTH shields at the top of ramps from both directions.
There are still at-grade intersections at I-85 and at nearby Fairforest Rd. Otherwise, US 176 is a freeway that could become I-585 to coneect it back up with I-85.
Despite the postings all over the place north of I-85 Bus, I confirmed with FHWA directly in April 2021 that I-585 still ends at I-85 Bus.
