I don't know when the northernmost part of SC 9 Business was multilaned..this makes the entirety of SC 9 Business multilaned.

SC 9 Bus #1: Appeared in 1949 as a renumbering of mainline SC 9 through Chesterfield
Between 1971-74, SC 9 Business was downgraded to S-13-1.
Oddly, starting with the 1955 Official, only one route was shown in the Chesterfield area, but the BUsiness-Bypass routings were on Chesterfield County maps through at least 1970.
SC 9 Business used Main St through Chesterfield.
The 1949 Official Map on the reverse shows a SC 9 Business sign graphic, which is how I know Chesterfield didn't have a SC 9 ALT.
