Virginia secondary routes in the independent city of Suffolk

moved from the Erroneous Signs thread, to focus on the topic of VA state routes in independent cities

Technically this is a double error: if SRs still existed in Virginia Beach, this would be SR 615, not VA 615. But since SR's do not exist in Virginia Beach or any other independent city not named Suffolk, there's no numbered route - primary or secondary - heading left (east) from the upcoming intersection (General Booth Blvd & Princess Anne Rd, which involves VA 149 and VA 165).

...any other independent city, period.  Suffolk's SR's officially went bye-bye when they took over maintenance from VDOT a couple years ago.

I guess I'll have to go down to Suffolk sometime to see if there are any SR signs left, then.

  As of March 21, I know some are left along US 460 west of the Suffolk Bypass and on the Suffolk Bypass at the Wilroy Rd(SR 642) interchange and probably at the Pitchkettle Rd(SR 604) interchange as well.

SR signs are still fairly common from what I've seen. Many BGS's along I-664 even still show the shields, as do those along the Suffolk Bypass.

And Virginia (at least in Hampton Roads) uses "End Construction" signs as the standard marker for the end of a work zone.

   From what I've seen they're throughout Virginia but I still haven't been to most of the south and west portions yet.
