Creation: VA 271 was created in September 1940 as part of the state line renumbering, replacing VA 160. It ran just as it does now. This is the 2nd VA 271.
Adjustments: Between 1985-94, VA 271 was rerouted to the newly built Nuckols Rd, leaving behind about 700 feet of old alignment west of the intersection Improvements: Paved upon inception Between 1985-94, VA 271 was multilaned from Nuckolls Rd to Country Creek Way Between 1995-2002, VA 271 was multilaned from US 250 to just short of its I-64 overpass In 2008, VA 271 was multilaned across I-64 to Liesfeld Farm Rd. Posted: Fully posted Multiplexes: None Legislative names: NONE Other names: Pouncey Tract Rd (entire route) Scenic Byway: No segments Comment: VA 271 north of SR 623 is still pretty rural with a narrower alignment. The 1939 VDOT report on primary system development had recommended that VA 271 (then VA 160) be decommissioned in its entirety.
