Creation: I-385 appeared between 1962-64. Originally it ran only north of I-85.
Adjustments: In 1985, I-385 was extended south as new construction to Mauldin, then replaced the US 276 freeway from Mauldin to I-26. The US 276 freeway goes back to at least 1961 (RMcN Atlas shows it, though incorrectly as I-26)
Improvements: 4 lane freeway since inception. North of I-85 is slated to be widened to 6-lanes.
Comment: I-385 did not really get an upgrade on the US 276 freeway, which is clearly early 60's vintage.
I-385 is the only interstate in SC to have a state highway multiplex, which it does with SC 14.
