Interstate 95 Virginia

Through Northern Virginia, Interstate 95 includes a two-lane HOV-3 reversible roadway between the north and southbound carriageways. The HOV-3 facility flows northbound during the morning commute and southbound during the evening commute. Beginning just south of Exit 152 (Virginia 234), the carpool lanes travel northward to the Springfield Interchange and continue down the middle of Interstate 395 to the 14th Street Bridge in Washington, DC. This northerly view looks at the typical three carriageway configuration of the freeway at milepost 153.2. Photo taken by Will Weaver (10/11/09).

During non-peak hours, non HOV traffic may use the center carriageway. Photo taken by Will Weaver (10/11/09).

Scenes Pertaining to Interstate 95
An 18 inch trailblazer for Interstate 95 complete with the state name is posted on Staffordborough Road southbound at Virginia State Secondary 610 (Garrisonville Road) near the Exit 143A/B cloverleaf interchange. Several state name shields can be found away from the Interstate 95 mainline on either U.S. 1 or other connecting roads. Photo taken 10/14/01.
Virginia Secondary 906 turns from Commerce Street onto Washington Street within the village of Occoquan. The route represents a former alignment of Virginia 253 leading south to Woodbridge. Pictured here is a SSR 906 southbound shield assembly posted on Washington Street ahead of Center Lane. A state-named Interstate 95 shield directs motorists east on Commerce Street to Virginia 123 (Gordon Boulevard) south for its interchange with the freeway (Exit 160). Photos taken 08/31/09.
