South Carolina Highway 75 (abbreviated S.C. Highway 75 or SC 75) is an 11-mile state highway in the U.S. state of South Carolina. The road is a mainly rural road.
Its eastern terminus at the North Carolina state line at NC 75. SC 75 is a 55 MPH road for most of its existence, as it is here. After running for two miles through the tip of Lancaster County, SC 75 overlaps US 521, running south.
The road continues on with US 521 for five miles, before merging off near the town of Van Wyck. SC 75 heads in the town's direction and about 2 miles past US 521 is the "downtown" of the tiny community. SC 75 bends to the left at a fork.
From there, SC 75 only has one mile left to live, so to speak, as it passes through Van Wyck's farmland and the AME Zion Church before ending at S.C. Highway 5 for its western terminus
There is also a Truck SC 75. When SC 75 merges off from US 521 near Van Wyck, Truck SC 75 begins and follows US 521 until an interchange with SC 5. Truck Route 75 then follows SC 5 until it meets up with SC 75 at its western terminus. The purpose of a truck route is unclear, although Van Wyck is a fairly small town and may not be fit for truck transportation
