U.S. Route 501 Business in Conway, South Carolina is a former segment of US 501 that runs into downtown Conway. The route begins in Red Hill, and utilizes a flyover with part of the northern terminus of South Carolina Highway 544. The former terminus of SC 544 can be found at the next signalized intersection which is shared with a local street named French Collins Road. Shortly after this, it becomes the western terminus of SC Route 90. The rest of the road runs straight through rural forestland until it approaches the Waccamaw River Memorial Bridge (Main Street Bridge) over the Waccamaw River and after crossing the bridge enters Conway Downtown Historic District. The first major intersection within the district is U.S. Route 378 (Third Street). U.S. Route 701 joins the route in a concurrency at Fourth Avenue, which is also the southwestern terminus of SC 905. North of 4th Avenue US Bus 501/701 passes by more historic sites in the city such as the City Post Office, the Beaty-Little House, the Burroughs School and others. At Collins Park Road/16th Avenue, US 701 continues north along Main Street while Business US 501 turns west, and west of Elm Street curves southwest. US Bus 501 ends at US 501 (Church Street), however 16th Avenue continues as a local street that terminates at US 378.
