From:  Washington (Rappahannock County) To:  Washington (Rappahannock County) Total Length:  1.50 miles
ROUTE LOG US 211, US 522: 0 - 0 US 211, US 522: 1.50 - 1.50		Creation: Designated June 1971 (AASHO) as a renumbering of mainline US 211 through Washington. Adjustments: None Improvements:  Paved upon inception; no multilane segments Posted:  Fully posted, though as of 2021 only one posting remains that is not on US 211 mainline. The turn at SR 622 is unmarked in both directions now. Multiplexes:  US 522 Bus (entire route) Legislative names:  Lee Highway on entire route (3-20-22 designation predates US 211) Other names:  Main St/Warren St Scenic Byway:  no segments Comment: The identity-challenged town of Washington is almost always referred to as Washington Va on road signs.  Rather unfortunate when you consider this is the oldest of all of the Washingtons in the US, having been platted by George himself in the 1740's. Note that US 522 Business is not posted at all.	1976 Official
