From: (Orangeburg County)
To: Elloree (Orangeburg County)
Total Length: 5.6 miles  
ROUTE LOG
US 301: 0 - 0
SC 6, SC 267: 5.6 - 5.6
 Creation: Appeared about 1929 as new primary routing running as it does today. This is the 2nd SC 47.
Adjustments: In 1940, SC 47 was extended west with SC 6 a bit, then as new primary routing to Lone Star, then replaced SC 264 northwest to SC 26 (now US 601).
In 1947, SC 47 north was truncated back to Elloree. SC 6 to Lone Star became S-38-38 and S-9-18 (now SC 267 except SC 47 cut over to Lone Star via S-9-130); Lone Star to SC 26 became S-9-11.

Improvements: SC 47 was paved from SC 4 (current US 301) to Elloree in 1937.
The Lone Star to SC 26 (current US 601) piece was paved upon designation in 1940.
SC 47 has no multilane segments.
Comment: SC 47's south end continues as a dirt road connector to US 176, which I always thought should be paved and upgraded.
There is a signed SC 47 TRUCK for Elloree that uses SC 6-267, S-38-1023, and S-38-81.
