From US 23 Business northbound. VA 78 actually loops underneath US 23 Business which is why it seems backwards. Photo by Mapmikey, taken May 24, 2008. | |

Former Southern Terminus
From 1945-87, VA 78 ended here. This is VA 78 northbound, which bears left. Before, this was US 23-58 ALT, which headed rightward until the bridge in the background was built. Photo by Mapmikey, taken May 24, 2008. | |
