South Carolina Highway 441 (SC 441) is a 26.3-mile-long (42.3 km) state highway in the U.S. state of South Carolina. The highway connects the Sumter area in Sumter County with rural areas of Lee County.
Route description
SC 441 begins at an intersection with SC 763 (Wedgefield Road) in Millwood, within Sumter County, where the roadway continues as Lynam Road. This intersection is northwest of Millwood Elementary School. It travels to the north and immediately curves to the northwest before leaving the city limits. The highway immediately travels through Sumter for approximately 60 feet (18 m) before re-entering Millwood. When it crosses over Green Swamp, it leaves Millwood a second time. It immediately travels along the southwestern edge of the city limits of Sumter before entering Sumter proper. The highway turns left onto Patriot Parkway, which is northeast of Patriot Park. The highway travels to the west and leaves Sumter. SC 441 curves to the west-northwest and crosses some railroad tracks. It curves to the north-northwest and intersects US 76/US 378 just southwest of Shaw Air Force Base. It curves to the north and north-northwest before traveling through a small portion of the base, with most turn-offs blocked by fences and/or jersey barriers. The highway travels along the northwestern edge of the base and then along the eastern edge of Oakland. It passes by Oakland Primary School before leaving Oakland and curving to the north-northwest. SC 441 travels through Catchall before it curves to the northeast. It travels along the northwestern edge of Dalzell and has an interchange with US 521 (Thomas Sumter Highway). Immediately afterward, it passes Thomas Sumter Academy. It travels through rural areas of the county before it intersects Dubose Siding Road at Stanyarne Burrows Crossroad. Just after that, it enters Lee County. The highway crosses over Rocky Bluff Swamp before traveling through Woodrow. Then, it crosses over Cowpen Swamp and McGirts Creek before intersecting Red Hill Road in Hammetts Crossroads. A short distance later, it meets its northern terminus, an intersection with US 15 (Sumter Highway).[1]
