Mechanicsville [adjective] [definition #2]

When a road gets re-aligned almost right next to the old alignment, like Bypass US 360 and Business US 360 in the namesake town.

Coincidentally, this term also applies to Mechanicsville, Iowa. When that section of US 30 was first paved in 1927, the highway was moved about 1000 feet to the south to the other side of the railroad tracks to eliminate two at-grade crossings.
