Creation: Looks to have been assigned by 1944 as a new primary
number to a corridor was placed into the state highway system apparently without number in the Aug 1932 CTB. It initially ran from US 17-VA 337 (now Elm St) northeast
along George Washington Hwy to Greene St, then north to Portsmouth
Blvd, then east to 4th St then Wythe St to Court St to High St west to
end at US 58 (now just High St/Washington St jct). This is the 4th VA 141. The first indication this occurred is it is shown unlabeled on the 1944 Official and it did not get explicitly labeled until the 1975 Official. It is not shown at all in the 1945 Norfolk County Map but is explicitly present by the 1951 Norfolk County issue.
Adjustments: In March 1968 (CTB), VA 141 was extended southwest to its current endpoint, replacing what was then US 17 Bus. Additionally, it was rerouted to leave George Washington Hwy via Effingham, then west on London Blvd to end at US 58/VA 337 ALT as it does today. Improvements: Paved upon inception Multilaning of VA 141 is shown on its entire run starting with the 1971 Official. Posted: Fully posted; The last cutout was removed in 1993 in front of Norfolk Naval Shipyard on a side street near Portsmouth Blvd. Multiplexes: NONE Legislative names: NONE Other names: George Washington Hwy; Effingham St; London Blvd Scenic Byway: NONE Comment: VA 141 serves Norfolk Naval Shipyard and Downtown Portsmouth.

VA 141 #1: Appeared in 1923 as a renumbering of VA 14 CONN, running from VA 33 (now US 11) Natural Bridge east to VA 14 (now SR 684) Glasgow.
In April 1924 (CTB), VA 141 east was truncated to today's SR 608 (was VA 14) west of Natural Bridge Station. The route east to Glasgow became part of VA 14. Today it is SR 773 and VA 130. In late 1926, US 60 was added to VA 141. In Aug 1928, VA 141 was renumbered as VA 801. Today this is part of VA 130.
VA 141 #2: Appeared June 1932 as new primary routing. Did not
appear explicitly on maps or in the CTB minutes but with the pattern of
numbering routes in District 1 I believe this was an upgrade to CR 6
and ran from VA 11 (now US 23 Bus) Norton south to nearly the Scott
County Line at High Knob. In July 1933, this became VA 73. Today it is SR 619 except north of today's US 23-58 ALT freeway it used 12th St.

Creation: Appeared in July 1933 as a renumbering of VA 439. Ran essentially as it does now. This is the 3rd VA 142.
Adjustments: In the late 1960s or so, the west end of VA 142 was reconfigured to accomodate an expanded interchange of I-85 and US 1. This actually eliminated a small far flung piece of VA 319.

Here is a state route that makes no sense. Why not extend the designation into downtown Petersburg? The 1939 VDOT report on primary system development had recommended that VA 142 be decommissioned in its entirety. |

VA 142 #1: Appeared in 1923 as new primary routing, running from
VA 14 (now US 60 Bus-220 Bus) Covington south to Eagle Rock via Glen
Wilton.
In March 1924 (CTB), VA 142 was extended south 9 miles towards Fincastle. Also in March 1924 (CTB), VA 142 was moved to run from Covington to Eagle Rock via Iron Gate. The 1923 Official shows this to be west of the James River until Eagle Rock. Most of this is not a road today, save for SR 633 and SR 835. If the map is slightly shifted it may have used SR 835 and SR 622 down to Gala. In Feb 1925 (CTB), VA 142 was extended south 9.5 miles through Fincastle. Also in Feb 1925, VA 142 was extended east along VA 14 to about Longdale, then north 2.63 miles as new routing. Also in Feb 1925, a second piece of VA 142 appeared, running from VA 17 (now VA 39) Millboro Springs south 5.76 miles. In May 1926 (CTB), the original piece of VA 142 was extended south to VA 33 (now US 11) Troutville. Also in May 1926, the second piece was extended south 3 more miles. In October 1926, both pieces of VA 142 (there was still a gap of 7.5 miles around the Bath/Alleghany Line) was renumbered as part of VA 17. Today this is SR 670 from Troutville to Trinity; US 220 from Trinity to past Fincastle; all of SR 655 north to Owens; US 220 to SR 876 to Eagle Rock; VA 43 and US 220 towards Clifton Forge except north of Gala it probably used SR 722 and in Iron Gate the route used Market St/5th St/Commerce Ave; US 220 Business into Clifton Forge except it went further west on Verge St and crossed the river to connect to River St up to Main St; US 60 Bus east then veered north on Ingalls Dr then east on SR 662 Chesnut over toward the east end of US 60 Bus, then picked up SR 632 Longdale Furnace Rd: VA 42 north to VA 39. VA 142 #2: Appeared in June 1932 as new primary routing. Ran from US 411/VA 10 (current SR 638) near Pattonsville and US 23/VA 106 (now SR 864 jct with SR 871) Duffield. In July 1933, VA 142 was renumbered as US 58. Today the western half is SR 604.

Creation: Appeared in June 1944 (CTB) as a renumbering of VA 168. This is the 3rd
VA 143. Originally it ran from US 60/VA 168 (Jefferson Ave) Newport
News east on 34th/35th St one-way pair, then Shell Rd into Hampton. VA 143 then used Back
River Rd to Quenn St east to end at US 60 Armistead Ave.
Adjustments: In March 1950 (CTB), VA 143 was removed from the Shell Rd to Queen St alignment outside Newport News and placed on 28th St/Victoria Blvd to end at US 60 Kecoughtan Rd. This was an upgrade to SR 1540. The old alignment became secondary except a bit of Shell Rd plus Back River Rd remained part of VA 167 (now decommissioned). However, the route within Newport News was unchanged, leaving a discontinuous/off-set routing.
In Aug 1952 (CTB), VA 143 was removed from the 34th/35th St pair to instead use 28th St which lines VA 143 up with the Victoria Blvd reroute in 1950. Official maps continued to show the discontinuous route through 1956. In Nov 1957 (CTB), VA 143 was extended in both directions: East along US 60 to what is now I-64, then replacing US 60 through Phoebus to end at US 258 Ft. Mornoe. The '58 VDOT County Atlas shows VA 143 duplexed with US 258 to Old Point Comfort but I am not certain that actually happened. In central Hampton, US 60/VA 143 was split into one-way routings in central Hampton. EB used Queen St. WB left Queen using Eaton north to Lincoln west to Armistead south to Queen. Northwest along Jefferson Ave replacing more VA 168 to what is now I-64 exit 255. From Mercury Blvd to I-64 this was co-signed as TEMP VA 168 until 1960 or 1961. In Aug 1960 (CTB), VA 143 was placed on one-way alignments in Newport News - WB using 28th St and EB using 27th St. In Oct 1965 (CTB), VA 143 was extended over more VA 168 all the way to Camp Peary as it runs today.
In Jan 1979 (CTB), VA 143 EB was removed from Queen St and placed on Settlers Landing Rd instead. The Armistead Ave piece became an extended VA 134 while Queen St became a mall. I cannot find any other CTB references so this may also have been when the one-way split in central Hampton went away. In March 1979 (CTB), VA 143 was rerouted in Phoebus. Initially it ran on Mallory St between Mellen and County. Now it left County on Libby to Mellen. The Mallory St piece became an extended VA 169. Improvements: Paved at time of inception VA 143 is first shown as multilaned on the 1955 Official, in Hampton from the Newport News Line east to VA 167. VA 143 was multilaned on 28th St in Newport News and also when added to Jefferson Ave in 1957. VA 143 was multilaned when it replaced VA 168 all the way to VA 162. VA 143 was multilaned on its US 60 duplex in 1979. Posted: Fully posted.

Starts at I-64/US 60 junction and uses Woodland Drive to Mercury Blvd to Fort Monroe. The purpose is to avoid two right angle turns in Phoebus. Comment: VA 143 is posted east-west even though it runs mostly north-south Technically the easternmost 0.28 miles are maintained by Fort Monroe. |

VA 146 #1: Appeared in July 1933 as a renumbering of VA 430.
It began at VA 5 at the New Osborne/Old Osborne jct at VA 5, then used
Old Osborne Tpk to an abandoned alignment northeast to Bickerstaff Rd
west back to current VA 5, then north ot Orleans St. VA 146 then cut
east on Orleans St to end at Fulton St which VA 5 originally was using.
In March 1943 (CTB), it appears VA 146 was removed from the Bickerstaff Routing to use current VA 5 through this area. In March 1949 (CTB), VA 146 was radically altered (essentially swapping places with VA 5), although one portion was not changed. VA 146 began at the same point but instead used New Osborne Tpk, Newton St and Hatcher St to Williamsburg Rd, then Fulton Rd north to Orleans St west to Main St which is where VA 146 ended at the rerouted VA 5. In Jan 1962 (CTB), VA 146 was decommissioned, though it didn't disappear from state maps until 1966.

It initially ran from VA 165 east to 0.4 miles short of SR 615 (SR 629

Multiplexes: None Legislative names: None Other names: Princess Anne Rd Scenic Byway: No segments Comment: VA 149 has the same distance as it did in 1958. Therefore its endpoint has not been moved to the General Booth Blvd/Princess Anne Rd intersection. Instead, it ends at the point Princess Anne Rd begins its multilaning before this junction (old SR 629 is visible to the right).

Adjustments: Around 1969, VA 150 was extended east to I-95. In Oct 1989 (CTB), VA 150 was extended northwest as new freeway across the James River to its current end at Parham/River Rds. Improvements: VA 150 was paved upon inception and was 2-lanes everywhere. VA 150 was freewayed from US 1 to I-95 in 1969. VA 150 was freewayed from US 60 to US 360 in 1971. VA 150 was freewayed from US 60 to Forest Hill Ave in 1973. In 1976, VA 150 was freewayed from US 1 to SR 637 Hopkins Rd. In 1979, VA 150 was freewayed from US 360 to VA 10. In 1983 or 1984, VA 150 was freewayed from VA 10 to SR 637. In 1990, VA 150 was 4-laned from Forest Hill Av to VA 147 and freewayed from VA 147 to Parham/River Rd. Posted: Fully posted; Error US 150 on a LGS existed on US 1-301 just north of VA 145 (referring to truck route for the Naval Supply Center) until about 2009. Multiplexes: none Legislative names: Edward E Willey Memorial Bridge over James River (9-21-89). Other names: Chippenham Pkwy Scenic Byway: No segments Comment: VA 150 provides a freeway corridor at the southwest edge of the City of Richmond. There are some at-grade intersections between VA 147 and Forest Hill Ave Although VA 150 is a freeway, there are some substandard in-out ramps between VA 10 and US 1 requiring 15 mph movements. Is there a reason VA 150 can't be signed to VA 6?

VA 150 #1: Appeared July 1933 as a renumbering of VA 312.
It ran from US 29 near Amherst north to Kingswood. It did NOT touch US
29 (now VA 56) in Colleen. VA 150's northern endpoint is on today's US
29 in between its two SR 655 junctions.
In Oct 1947 (CTB), VA 150 was eliminated. The northernmost couple miles became part of a relocated US 29 while the rest became SR 739. It is possible VA 150 was moved onto the modern US 29 from Amherst to Colleen at today's VA 56 briefly before US 29 was put on it. The project was referenced as VA 150 before completion. VA 150 #2: Created Feb 1961 (CTB) as new routing in Portsmouth, running from US 58 High St north on 7th Ave through the second Norfolk-Portsmouth Tunnel (Midtown Tunnel), then southeast along proposed Waterfront Dr. VA 337, Brambleton (proposed 337 ALT), then north on Bank St, then east on Virginia Beach Blvd to end at VA 168 Tidewater Dr. In June 1962 (CTB) this was replaced by US 58. This was so short lived it may not have ever been posted. Does not show up on the '62 Official. Anyone have a 1962 Norfolk County map?

Adjustments: About 1938, VA 151 was extended north to US 250 (now SR 750) Afton, replacing some of VA 6. In Feb 1939 (CTB), VA 151 was rebuilt in the Wintergreen-Nellysford area, leaving behind SR 627 and pieces of SR 612 and SR 613. In May 1939 (CTB), VA 151 was straightened out between SR 610 and Lowesville in Amherst County, leaving behind SR 665 and SR 694. In Jan 1941 (CTB), VA 151 was extended over what had been US 250 to US 250 higher up the mountain. In Oct 1947 (CTB), VA 151 was rerouted at Piney River to head south towards Amherst, replacing a rerouted US 29. The old route from Piney River west to Sardis became VA 158 (now SR 778). See map scans under VA 150 #1 entry. In 1962 (bridge date), VA 151 was removed from SR 638 in the Avon area. In Sept 1989 (CTB), VA 151 was rerouted to its current end at US 250 in a swap with VA 6 (which had been re-extended to US 250 in 1963).

Creation: Created July 1933 as a 2-piece route: 1. US 460 north to the Amelia line (replacing VA 405; 2. US 360 near Swift Creek Reservoir through Winterpock to SR 602 (replacing the northern piece of VA 409 and possibly the mysterious VA 441). This has been the only VA 153.
Adjustments: In Oct 1935 (CTB), the southern piece of VA 153 was extended north to VA 38 (now SR 708) near Wilsons Corner. In May 1938 (CTB), the northern piece of VA 153 was extended west along SR 602 to Amelia SR 612. In May 1945 (CTB), the entire northern piece of VA 153 was downgraded to SR 602 and SR 621 In April 1951 (CTB), VA 153 was extended north to Scotts Fork, then west to amelia, replacing VA 38. In Aug 1951 (CTB), VA 153 was rerouted at Scotts Fork to instead replace VA 148 north to US 360 as it runs now. Scotts Fork to Amelia went back to being VA 38. In March 1964 (CTB), the south end of VA 153 was moved eastward about 0.1 miles as part of a relocation of US 460. In June 1979 (CTB), VA 153's south end was moved eastward again another 0.25 mile to its current location as new construction below SR 660.
Improvements: Paved upon inception on all of the southern piece and the northern half of the northern piece The remaining portion of VA 153 was paved in 1935.

Creation: Designated April 1962 (CTB) to run from the
proposed I-64 location "up S. Durant Ave to the north side of Jackson
River; thence northwesterly and generally parallel to the Jackson River
and the C & O Railroad Belt Line to a connection with Riverside
Street at its intersection with North Lexington Ave; thence
northeasterly along Riverside Street to North Alleghany Avenue (US
220)"
This is the 3rd VA 154. Adjustments: The VA 154 designation was contingent upon I-64's completion through Covington which was about 1966. In Feb 1968 (CTB), VA 154 was moved from Durant St to Craig St via new alignment. It is unclear if the current routing of VA 154 in central Covington has always been the same. VA 154 leaves Riverside and juts east to US 220 on E. Hickory St. There is a break in the route "between Lexington St and Locust St" according to the 2003 Route Log (the City VDOT atlas from the mid 90s and the current DOT on-line map both show this as well). This would require new construction or several turns to connect Craig at Locust to Riverside and Lexington intersections.

Creation: Appeared in July 1933 as a renumbering of VA 414,
running from US 360 Mechanicsville around to VA 5, then west over the
Battlefield Park Rd to end at Osbourne Turnpike. This is the only VA
156. Adjustments: In Aug 1936 (CTB), VA 156 was truncated to VA 5 near the Charles City-Henrico Line, leaving behind VA 5 and the US Gov't took over the Battlefield Park Rd over to Osbourne Tpk. In May 1952 (CTB), VA 156 was proposed by Hanover County to extended northwest to US 301/VA 2 in the Atlee area. The CTB rejected this request. In March 1958 (CTB), VA 156 was extended east along VA 5, then south replacing VA 36 across the James River Ferry to Hopewell, then replaced VA 154 south to US 301 near Templeton. In Hopewell, VA 156 used VA 10 , then Commerce St, Main St, City Point Rd, 15th Ave and Arlington Rd
In 1960 or 1961, VA 156 was rerouted to its current end at US 301/VA 35, leaving behind Millpond Ln. This was because VDOT did not want to build a separate interchange on I-95 for VA 156. In April 1961 (CTB), VA 156 was rerouted in Hopewell to use the current VA 156 Business route. 15th Ave remained part of VA 36. In 1967, VA 156 was moved onto the Harrison Bridge over the James River. The Charles City County approach to the ferry became SR 658. In Feb 1977, the Harrison Bridge was struck and severely damaged by a tanker ship. A passenger ferry was up in short order at the previous ferry launches and also in May 1977 (CTB), a small-scale ferry for cars and small trucks was also re-established. About Oct 1978, VA 156 was put back onto the repaired Harrison Bridge. About 1979 (CTB), VA 156 was removed from Old Williamsburg Rd on both sides of the new I-295. In Oct 1980 (CTB), Prince George County requested the VA 156 Bypass of Hopewell be created as an upgrade to SR 644. The CTB denied this request, but in Sept 1982 they assigned it. In Aug 1986 (CTB), VA 156 was removed from Hanover Rd and its VA 33 duplex near Sandston and instead routed over Airport Rd to US 60.

Comment: I finally got to drive VA 160 in 2008. It is extremely twisty on its western half ascending Black Mtn, which is the highest point in Kentucky. Heading eastward, there are expansive views, although some of it is of mining interests. VA 160 was briefly US 23 in the early 30s. |
