Route description
SC 200 in Fairfield County

SC 200 is mostly a rural two-lane highway, traversing northwest from Winnsboro, through Great Falls and Lancaster, to the North Carolina state line.[6]

History

Established in 1938 as a renumbering part of SC 93 to match NC 200; it originally traversed 7 miles (11 km) from US 521 to the North Carolina state line. By 1952, SC 200 was extended to its current southern terminus in Winnsboro; this replaced SC 93 from Lancaster to Great Falls and SC 22 from Great Falls to Winnsboro.[7]

South Carolina Highway 93 (SC 93) was a state highway that was established in 1925 or 1926 from SC 9 in Lancaster to the North Carolina state line north of the city, where the roadway continued as North Carolina Highway 200. In 1932, it was extended to SC 97 just northeast of Great Falls. In 1938, its northern terminus was truncated to what was US 521/SC 9 in Lancaster. Its former path was redesignated as SC 200. In 1940, its path through Lancaster was re-worked, with its former path becoming SC 93 Alternate (SC 93 Alt.). In 1952, the rest of SC 93 was decommissioned, with most of its path becoming part of SC 200.[7]

South Carolina Highway 93 Alternate (SC 93 Alt.) was an alternate route that existed partially in Lancaster. It was established in February 1937 as part of a re-routing of SC 93 in Lancaster. It traveled from SC 93 and SC 914 in Crocketts Crossroads to what was US 521/SC 9 in Lancaster. In 1947, it was decommissioned and downgraded to secondary roads. Today, it is known as Springdale Road and Midway Street.
