US 13 ALT  not currently assigned
Previous US 13 ALT's:		US 13 ALT #1: Appeared sometime in 1950 (per April 1951 CTB) as a renumbering of mainline US 13 from Eastville to Cape Charles. After US 13 was routed to catch the ferry to Norfolk further south, there was still a ferry from Cape Charles to Old Point Comfort (Hampton). This ferry was gone by 1956, though US 13 ALT was still there. US 13 ALT was renumbered as VA 184 in May 1957 (CTB). US 13 ALT #2: Appears in March 1958 CTB Minutes as a proposal by City of Hampton and endorsed by a member of the CTB to establish this to run from Old Point Comfort (via Ferry from Kiptopeke - there were 2 ferries from Kiptopeke then) over US 258 to Benns Church, then down VA 10 to meet US 13 again in Suffolk. Further study determined that this designation was unwise due to a second toll at James River Bridge and the route would be mostly 2-lane.
