U.S. 78

U.S. 78 extends 142.20 miles southeast into South Carolina, from North Augusta to Charleston. U.S. 1 enters the state alongside U.S. 1/25/278. U.S. 1/78 overlap 15.96 miles east to Burnettown and Aiken. U.S. 78 heads south from there to Williston in Barnwell County.

Following a rural route, U.S. 78 continues east from Blackville to Denmark and Bamberg in Bamberg County. Crossing the Edisto River, U.S. 78 enters southern Orangeburg County, where it joins U.S. 21 for 0.20 miles through the town of Branchville. Accompanying a Norfolk Southern Railroad line, U.S. 78 advances east to Reevesville, I-95 and Saint George in northern Dorchester County.

Through the South Carolina's LowCountry, U.S. 78 parallels Interstate 26, from the south end of U.S. 178 to Summerville. U.S. 78 shifts east of the freeway to Goose Creek, where it combines with U.S. 52. U.S. 52/78 overlap 9.47 miles south by Hanahan and into the city of North Charleston. The two separate ahead of Charleston, with U.S. 78 lining King Street south to Line Street just beyond the elevated ramps linking U.S. 17 with the east end of I-26.
