South Carolina Highway 41 (SC 41) is a 121.5-mile (195.5 km) state highway, connecting the Charleston region with eastern portions of the Pee Dee region in South Carolina. It serves as an alternative route to U.S. Route 52.

Route description

The route travels generally in a south-north direction, beginning in Mount Pleasant and ending at the North Carolina state line just north of Lake View, where it continues as North Carolina Highway 41 towards Lumberton. The route is mostly rural, though it serves as an important arterial in suburban Mount Pleasant and passes through several small towns on its route northwards. It also provides several key river and swamp crossings in the Pee Dee region.

Future

The Wando River Bridge, a through truss swing bridge built in 1939, is to be replaced by 2020-2021. The new bridge will be four-lane with median (which can be used as a fifth lane during emergencies), and will open in center for tall ships. At a cost of $42.3 million, construction is slated to begin in Autumn, 2014.[2][3][4]
