Route description

SC 172 begins at an intersection with U.S. Route 178 (US 178; North Road) east-northeast of North, within Orangeburg County. This intersection also marks the terminus of SC 692, which begins a very brief concurrency with SC 172. They travel to the north-northeast. Approximately 1,000 feet (300 m) later, they split, with SC 172 heading to the east-northeast before it enters Calhoun County. It passes by the Do-Little Field airport just before it meets US 21 (Columbia Road). SC 172 continues another 0.09 miles (0.14 km) to end at SC 6 (Caw Caw Road).[2]
