Yes, it's a dead zone, deep country all the way. The area out around Muller Road and Cedar Creek Road, if you really use your imagination, could remind you of western North Carolina, very lush and hilly. You can't cross the river until you get up to Peak SC, and even then, you're simply connecting Peak and Chapin, one exurb (and even that's being generous) with another.
Oops...
When I wrote that, I had it firmly in my mind that Peak was on the north/east side of the Broad River. As it so happened, I was out that way today... and then it dawned on me... you cross the bridge at Jenkinsville, before you get to Peak. Peak and Chapin are both on the same side of the river, though on opposite sides of I-26, and there is an overpass connecting both towns.
We need another interstate across the inland part of this region of the Southeast, a NW to SE/SE to NW road through those areas is perfect, in my mind.
When the current major interstates were proposed, many of the areas and metros which this road will serve were much smaller than they are currently. Columbus, OH, appears to be the largest metro it would serve. It would alleviate traffic on I-77 and other heavily-traveled highways.

Right it is quite nice and the down side of opening that area up is that it would likely become developed unless zoned otherwise.
