In 1930, VA 800 was rebuilt in parts of Highland County, leaving behind CR 102 (now SR 636) south of Monterey and CR 201 (now SR 632) north of Monterey. In June 1931 (CTB), VA 800 was extended southwest 2 miles over more CR 11 In July 1932 (CTB), VA 800 was extended to the Craig County Line In July 1933, VA 800 was renumbered in its entirety to VA 18. Today it is mostly VA 18 south of Covington, except VA 800 used SR 657; in Covington VA 800 used US 60-200, then Chestnut to Lexington to Water St north back to US 220; US 220 from Covington to West Virginia. At 86 miles VA 800 was one of the longest 3-digit numbers in the 1928-33 system. VA 800

It ran from US 11/VA 33 Natural Bridge east to VA 14 (now SR 608) Forge Rd, a mile away. In 1930, VA 801 was extended (still with US 60) east to Glasgow, replacing part of VA 14 which was rerouted to use today's US 501. In July 1933, VA 801 was renumbered to VA 249. Today it is part of VA 130. VA 801 does not appear on any official maps but is in the 1932 VDOT County Atlas VA 801.

In Aug 1929 (CTB), VA 803 was extended 1.5 miles north over CR 1. In June 1930 (CTB), VA 803 was extended 1.5 more miles north over CR 1. In December 1930 (CTB), a second piece of VA 803 appeared as an upgrade to CR 8, from VA 804 (now VA 39) Windy Cove north 5.65 miles. See first scan in VA 804 entry. VA 803 initial route In June 1931 (CTB), the original piece was extended to Doe Hill and the second piece was extended 1 mile north towards Ft. Lewis. In July 1932 (CTB), the original piece was extended south 3.93 miles from VA 39 as an upgrade to CR 1. The April 1932 VDOT Official shows these two pieces numbered as VA 803. However, the July 1932 Bath and Highland County Maps both show VA 803 renumbered as part of VA 804. I also have a 1933 Conoco (Gousha) that shows the same renumbering and the CTB Minutes do not reference a route 803 after July 1932. Today, the second piece of VA 803 is part of SR 678 as is the piece south of McDowell. McDowell to Doe Hill is SR 654.

In June 1930 (CTB), VA 804 was extended 1 more mile west over CR 4. In July 1932 (CTB), VA 804 was extended 1.3 more miles west over CR 4. It appears that in July 1932, VA 804 east end was extended north over VA 803 to Fort Lewis, then after a gap replaced more VA 803 through McDowell to Doe Hill. The 1932 Bath and Highland County Maps both show VA 803 renumbered as part of VA 804. I also have a 1933 Conoco (Gousha) that shows the same renumbering and the CTB Minutes do not reference a route 803 after July 1932. This apparent extension left a 0.52 mile piece of primary routing between the old south end of VA 803 and VA 17 Millboro Springs. The 1932 Bath County map does not show a number on it. My guess is that it became VA 804-Y. In July 1933, VA 804 west of Millboro Springs became VA 501 (1933 draft route list had this becoming VA 9) and the part north of Millboro Springs to Doe Hill became VA 269. Today, the VA 501 piece is part of VA 39 and the two VA 269 pieces are SR 678 and SR 654. VA 804-Y: I believe this was created in July 1932 as a renumbering of a piece of VA 804. Served as a 0.52 mile cutoff between VA 804 (now VA 39-SR 678 jct) and VA 17 (now VA 39-42 jct). In July 1933, this became part of VA 501 (now VA 39). The 1933 draft route list had this becoming VA 9. VA 804 initial route VA 804 extended over VA 803

In July 1932 (CTB), VA 805's northwest end was extended southwest as an upgrade to CR 2 to California, then replaced VA 837 from there to US 60/VA 14. This left a piece of primary routing no longer part of VA 805 to connect to VA 17 in Goshen. This piece is shown on the 1932 Rockbridge County map but not numbered and probably became VA 805-Y although there is a tiny chance it became VA 837. In July 1933, VA 805 southeast of Goshen became VA 501 (1933 draft route list had this becoming VA 9) and the part southwest of Goshen became VA 270. Today, the VA 501 piece is part of VA 39 and a little SR 602/732 in the Rockbridge Baths area; the VA 270 piece is SR 780. VA 805-Y: I believe this was created in July 1932 as a renumbering of a piece of VA 805. Served as a cutoff between VA 805 (now VA 39-SR 780 jct) and VA 17 (now VA 39-39A-42 jct). In July 1933, this became part of VA 501 (now VA 39 and 39 ALT). The 1933 draft route list had this becoming VA 9. VA 805 initial route VA 805 extended back around to US 60

It ran from US 11/VA 33 (curr SR 764) southwest of Lexington west 8.14 miles towards Collierstown. In Aug 1929 (CTB), VA 806 was extended west 1 mile. In June 1930 (CTB), a separate piece of VA 806 was born, running 1 mile east off US 60/VA 14 (now VA 269) Longdale Furnace. In Dec 1930 (CTB), the two pieces of VA 806 were connected. In July 1933, VA 806 became VA 251. West of Collierstown is now SR 770. The SR 770 crossing of North Mountain is little improved since the days of VA 806 and I do not recommend travel without a 4WD.
