Highway system

South Carolina Highway 421 (SC 421) is a primary state highway in the U.S. state of South Carolina. It is an alternate route to U.S. Route 1 (US 1) and US 78 between North Augusta and Aiken.

Route description

SC 421 begins where it splits off from US 1/US 78 (Jefferson Davis Highway) west of North Augusta; it immediately connects with US 278/SC 125 (Atomic Road). Heading northeast, it parallels US 1/US 78 to its south, going through the towns of Clearwater, Burnettown, Langley, Gloverville and Warrenville. Upon entering Aiken, it reconnects with US 1/US 78. A majority of the highway is four-lanes that travels a total of 10.4 miles (16.7 km).[2]

History

SC 421 was established by 1952 as a renumbering of US 1/US 78, which was realigned onto new four-lane routing just north of it. The route has remained unchanged since inception.[3][4]

Major intersections

The entire route is in Aiken County.

gollark: I think trying to restrict this information from spreading around is... about as effective as DRM, really, for the reason that you can kind of control who gets information but not how it's used or spread out after they do.

gollark: Bots running on a user account instead of a bot one.

gollark: Not technically, they are explicitly.

gollark: Me hacking Discord.

gollark: No, it's just selfbots.
