South Carolina Highway 336 (SC 336) is a primary state highway in the U.S. state of South Carolina. It serves to connect Ridgeland with nearby U.S. Route 321 and South Carolina Highway 462.

Route description

SC 336 is a two-lane rural highway predominantly throughout its route. Starting at US 321, in Tillman, it goes east into downtown Ridgeland, then continuing east to SC 462, in Old House, where it ends. Its routing east of I-95 takes a series of turns, making the highway's routing a bit disjointing. Travelers wishing to bypass Ridgeland can continue straight on Smiths Crossing (S-27-29), saving a 0.5 miles (0.80 km) and a few minutes, though large trucks are restricted from using that route.

The highway connects to several historic places, including Jasper County Courthouse, Church of the Holy Trinity, Honey Hill-Boyd's Neck Battlefield, White Hall Plantation House Ruins and the Old House Plantation.

History

Established in 1938 as a new primary routing from SC 33 (today's US 321), in Tillman, to US 17/SC 36 (today's US 17/US 278), in Ridgeland.[2] In 1997, it replaced US 278 from Ridgeland to SC 462, in Old House.[3]
