| Eastbound on the overlap of U.S. 13 north with U.S. 58 & 460
eastbound at the Suffolk and Chesapeake city line. The three highways cosign between the Suffolk
city center eastward to Interstate 664. The sign bridge displayed here partitions the three eastbound lanes
into the counterparts of U.S. 58 & 460 Alternate eastbound and U.S. 13 northbound & U.S. 460 eastbound.
Contrary to the signage, U.S. 13 and U.S. 460 actually follow U.S. 58 through the interchange with Interstate
664, then they split off of U.S. 58 at the intersection with Joliff Rd east of the interchange. The connection
leads something to be desired and may be the reasoning for elluding to U.S. 13 & 460 following the Interstate
264 eastbound ramp.1 Top photo taken 12/17/01; bottom photo taken 05/01.

| A second set of signs for the impending U.S. 13 north
& 460 east parting from U.S. 58. Interstate 664 connects the U.S. highway trio with the cities of
Newport News and Hampton via the Monitor-Merrimac Memorial Bridge Tunnel. Traffic to the Chesapeake Bay
Bridge Tunnel (U.S. 13) is advised to stay on Interstate 64 Outer. Top photo taken 12/17/01; bottom photo taken 05/01.

| Traffic to Interstate 264 eastbound and U.S. 13 & 460
departs U.S. 58 east. The official routing of U.S. 13 & 460 however, continues eastward along U.S. 58 to
Joliff Road. From there the paired highways turn southward on Joliff to the Military Highway.
Ramps to Interstate 264 and the Hampton Roads Beltway (Interstate 64 & 664) otherwise depart within one half mile.
U.S. 460 remains overlapped with U.S. 13 on the Military Highway through to the intersection with
Bainbridge Boulevard (Virginia 166). Photo taken 12/17/01.
|
| U.S. 460 Alternate begins at the U.S. 58 split with U.S.
13 south & 460 east at the Airline Boulevard/Joliff Road intersection. Virginia 191 follows Joliff Road to
the north from U.S. 13-58-460-460A. Traffic wishing to access Interstate 664 northbound departs from
the trio in one half mile. Ahead is the Interstate 664 overcrossing and Exit 13B on-ramp merge from
the Hampton Roads Beltway southbound. Photo taken 12/17/01.
|
| The lane added from Exit 13B of Interstate 664 southbound
becomes exit-only for Interstate 664 northbound. The Hampton Roads Beltway links U.S. 13-58-460 and the city
of Suffolk with Newport News and Hampton to the north of the James River. U.S. 58 & 460A meanwhile part with
U.S. 13 & 460 eastward into the city of Portsmouth. Photo taken 12/17/01.
|
| Northbound on Granby Street (U.S. 460) near the confluence of
Interstate 64 & 564 adjacent to the Norfolk Navy Base. A cloverleaf loop exists to carry U.S. 460 eastbound
motorists onto Interstate 564 westbound. Displayed here is a shield and guide sign assembly at the ramp
departure. The first mainline exit of Interstate 564 is with Virginia 406 (International Terminal Boulevard).
