South Carolina highways

South Carolina Highway 22, also known as the Conway Bypass and Veterans Parkway, is a four lane freeway that connects U.S. 501 north of Conway, South Carolina to U.S. 17 in Myrtle Beach. The road was opened to traffic on May 4, 2001, six months ahead of schedule. There is speculation that this could become part of Interstate 73 in the near future. The road lacks lights and uses the interstate-style exits and entrances, but the shoulders on the bypass are not wide enough to support interstate traffic and need widening to support the increase in traffic.[citation needed]
