The US Route 17, the first major route into the Myrtle Beach area, runs from the border of North Carolina till the Myrtle Beach area and from there turns towards west and north into Conway. In the year 1933 the road was named so and US 17 was extended into South Carolina a year later. This road was named again as US 501 in a much complex route following modern Broadway Street, Highway 15, Seaboard street, Grissom Pkwy, Highway 544, and Business US 501.
