History
Originally established in either 1937 or 1938, it was a new primary route from US 521, near Heath Springs, to NC 9, in Primus. In 1948, it was decommissioned. However, in 1949, it was reestablished along the same route and north to the North Carolina state line. In 1951 or 1952, SC 522 was extended east to its current eastern terminus in Liberty Hill.
