Route description
SC 66 is a two-lane rural highway that travels 17.4 miles (28.0 km), from SC 56, to SC 72, in Whitmire. It connects to US 76 and I-26. Predominantly in the Sumter National Forest, it meanders through forest lands; in Whitmire, it takes a couple of turns before reaching SC 72, via Central Avenue, Park Street and Glenn Street.
History
SC 66 was established in 1934 as a new primary routing, traversing from SC 56 to US 76/SC 2, in Goldville (now Joanna). In 1941 or 1942, a second SC 66 was created, from SC 706, in Eisons Crossroads, to the Newberry-Laurens county line. In 1948, the two sections of SC 66 were connected, and was also extended east into Whitmire, replacing part of SC 706.[2][3][4][5]
