Route description
SC 160 Truck and SC 460 in Fort Mill

SC 460 begins at the intersection SC 160 and Gold Hill Road, in Tega Cay. Traveling east, along Gold Hill Road, it connects with Interstate 77 (I-77), then soon after splits from Gold Hill Road at Deerfield Drive intersection, continuing as Springfield Parkway. Connecting with U.S. Route 21 (US 21), it begins a concurrency with SC 160 Truck, followed by a quick concurrency with US 21 Business. Reaching back with SC 160, on the eastern side of Fort Mill, the highway ends with SC 160 Truck.[1]

The speed limit for most of SC 460 is 45 miles per hour (72 km/h), with 35 miles per hour (56 km/h) around the I-77 interchange. The Gold Hill Road segment is four-lane with turning median; it is also known as the Becky Meacham-Richardson Highway, who served as a state representative for the Lake Wylie–Tega Cay area.
