Cutting Your Driving Time--If
you're heading from Myrtle Beach to North Myrtle
Beach, the opening of the 29-mile Conway Bypass
has cut driving time by half an hour. The road
brings to life the "Bridge to Nowhere,"
which for 3 years stood astride the Intracoastal
Waterway without a road. The bypass, also State
Road 22, runs between U.S. 501, the major route
to the coast, northwest of Conway, and U.S.
17 in North Myrtle Beach. |
