History
SC 37 is an original state highway, established in 1922. Its original routing was from
SC 1, in
Barnwell, to
SC 27, in
Williston. In 1923, SC 37 was rerouted to
Elko, leaving behind Williston Way (S-6-113). In 1940, SC 37 was extended in both directions: north to
SC 39; south through Barnwell, in concurrency with SC 3, to the
Barnwell-
Allendale county line. By 1942, a separate section of SC 37 was established on primary routing from
SC 73/
SC 631, southeast of
Allendale, to north of
SC 28, in
Baldock. By 1946, the two sections were combined, reaching its apex of nearly long. In 1948, SC 37 was truncated to
US 78, in Elko; but in the following year, it was re-extended back to SC 39. In 1962 or 1963, SC 37 was truncated at its current southern terminus with
SC 28, north of Barnwell; its former alignment south replaced by SC 3.
