History
Like virtually all state spanning stretches of the United States Interstate Highways, I-95 in South Carolina was constructed in various stages, mainly from north-to-south, from 1965 to 1980, which includes the 1968-built Lake Marion Bridge. The first traffic rolled along the highway from Dillon to Turbeville in 1968, finally able to cross the Savannah River south of Hardeeville by 1981.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“It takes a great deal of history to produce a little literature.”
—Henry James (1843–1916)
“He wrote in prison, not a History of the World, like Raleigh, but an American book which I think will live longer than that. I do not know of such words, uttered under such circumstances, and so copiously withal, in Roman or English or any history.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Those who weep for the happy periods which they encounter in history acknowledge what they want; not the alleviation but the silencing of misery.”
