South Carolina has many numbered highways maintained by the state. These roads fall into one of three categories: Interstate highways, U.S. highways, and state highways. Most numbered highways in the state are maintained by the South Carolina Department of Transportation.
[edit] Signage
The old SC Highway shield design.
In 2007, the Legislature allowed the signs marking the state highways to be changed from the old black-and-white to the new blue-and-white design, which features an outline of the state, the Palmetto Tree & Crescent symbol from the state flag, and the words "SOUTH CAROLINA" spelled out along on the top of the highway shield.[1] South Carolina uses a wide shield for all routes, the width most states use only for three-digit routes. The former shield was a simple white rectangle with a black border, with the letters "S.C." on top.
