Southern Terminus

This view is SR 775 approaching VA 97. A few maps imply VA 97 would end here but is continues a short distance to the left. Photo by Mapmikey, taken April 13, 2007.

Here is VA 97 coming to an end at this intersection with SR 608 which it has since 1946. SR 620 continues ahead. The overpass is the Blue Ridge Pkwy, which does not mention VA 97, even though SR 608 runs into it very shortly to the right. Photo by Mapmikey, taken April 13, 2007.

Beginning down VA 97 from SR 608. The stop sign is where SR 775 meets VA 97. Photo by Mapmikey, taken April 13, 2007.

Here is the view from SR 608 running into VA 97. Photo by Mapmikey, taken April 13, 2007.
