About the
Southern Connector
The Southern Connector is the Upstate's most
forward-thinking roadway that makes I-85 and I-385 look like
parking lots. It's the pain relief from US 25. The sanctuary
from SC 20. And it's the first area highway designed with
YOUR future in mind!
The Connector was conceived and constructed to relieve
congestion on main traffic arteries, provide easier highway
access, and stimulate growth to the generally
under-developed area communities surrounding Greenville,
South Carolina. Our goal is to get you where you're going -
faster and safer while attracting and supporting the growth
of this region.
The metropolitan Greenville revolution that started over a
decade ago was carefully and thoughtfully planned, as is the
Southern Connector. Linking Simpsonville, Mauldin, and its
surrounds to the major traffic branches in and out of the
city has expanded the developmental corridor southward.
Although the dividends of this undertaking will be realized
over time, the Southern Connector is already playing a
pivotal role in the continued vitalization of these outlying
areas. New business, residential, and retail construction
projects are well underway with more to follow.
We at the Southern Connector realize the addition of a major
toll road may not be the most eventful thing that has ever
happened in the Upstate. However, we firmly believe our
highway will become as familiar, identifiable, and
synonymous with the wave of prosperity that will follow in
its path!
