The North Carolina End of NC 49 is at the VA Line in Virgilina. The
end of the double yellow line is the state line.

Looking from Virginia into North Carolina. NC 49 continues as VA
49 to US 360 northeast of Burkeville. If you can obtain a photo of
this end, please e-mail me.
NC 49 is actually multiplexed with NC 96 when crossing into Virginia.
Below, the first NC 49/96 shields inside the state line.

The multiplex is very brief and both designations continue into Virginia.

This is another photo of the bridge as SC 49 crosses into the Tar Heel
State to become NC 49. Note: During the Summer of 2001, the old
Buster Boyd Bridge had been replaced by the newer span. Construction
began immediately to tear down the old bridge and replace it with another
two lane span allowing for four lanes of traffic to cross over Lake Wylie.
The dual span four lane bridge should be opened in 2003. NC Hwy 49 continues in to South Carolina as SC
49 to its end in Laurens, SC. If you can get a photo of this ending,
please send me an e-mail.
