Western Terminus

Heading into Pulaski, VA 99's beginning is marked. All 99 shields in Pulaski seem to be in circles.   Photo by Mapmikey, taken March 14, 2008.

The change in pavement is where VA 99 becomes SR 738. VA 99 has ended here since 1952.   Photo by Mapmikey, taken March 14, 2008.

Shortly after that point, there is a vintage END 99 shield. This is the only normal VA 99 shield I know of not at I-81. The yellow sign ahead is warning trucks not to use 738 over the mountain to VA 42.   Photo by Mapmikey, taken March 14, 2008.

From the 1940s-1952, VA 99 ended outside Mechanicsburg at today's VA 42. This is eastbound VA 42 at SR 738.   Photo by Mapmikey, taken July 21, 2007.

This is beginning down SR 738 (old VA 99) from VA 42. Before the 1940's this was VA 42.   Photo by Mapmikey, taken July 21, 2007.

From 1937-1940s, VA 99 ended in Mechanicsburg at VA 42 at the SR 624-738 jct. This was the view of VA 42 east (bears left) at VA 99 begins ahead.   Photo by Mapmikey, taken July 21, 2007.

From 1933-61, VA 99 ended a little east of the current I-81 interchange. This is the view of old VA 100 (now F047) northbound at old VA 99 (now SR ).   Photo by Mapmikey, taken May 18, 2007.

This is the view of old VA 100 (now F047) southbound at old VA 99 (now SR 672).   Photo by Mapmikey, taken May 18, 2007.

This is the view of old VA 99 beginning. This section of old VA 99 doesn't travel far before ending at I-81. SR 769 picks back up on the other side of 81. It looks pretty narrow and non-primary for a route that lasted to the 1960s. Note that original VA 10 and US 11 have used this road as well.   Photo by Mapmikey, taken May 18, 2007.
