Creation: Appeared in 1957 as a renumbering of US 15 ALT from Sumter via Darlington to Society Hill, then added to US 15 into North Carolina. This is the 2nd US 401 in South Carolina.
|
Adjustments: In 1973, US 401 was placed on the new Darlington bypass. The old route became US 401/SC 34 CONN, SC 34, and US 52 Business. Improvements: Fully paved when created The first multilane section of US 401 appeared on on the Bennettsville Bypass in 1958. The next section to be upgraded was the Darington Bypass in 1973. No other parts of US 401 are shown as multilane on Official Maps. Comment: US 401 does not make much sense as a through route in South Carolina. The non-multiplexed part between Sumter and Darlington was once part of today's SC 763 and was original SC 412 in the 1920's US 401 has a two turn zig-zag in the town of Lamar. A couple Marlboro County maps show US 401 Bus through Bennettsville (the US 15 bypass predates US 401 entirely). But many more do not and I believe US 401 Business did not exist there. | Previous US 401's:

US 401 #1: Appeared 1933 as a renumbering of SC 30 from US 17 (now SC 63) Walterboro north via Santee, Sumter, Hartsville, and Bennettsville before heading into North Carolina at McColl.
In 1935, US 401 was renumbered as US 15. Today this is still US 15 except it crossed what is now Lake Marion 2 bridges to the west of I-95 (has the billboards on them); S-42-5 in Sumter; S-43-46 and S-43-325 over Whites Mill Pond; US 15 Business through Hartsville; S-35-167 and abandoned causeway at the Pee Dee River; SC 385, SC 385 CONN through Bennettsville.
