Main St WB approaching S. 8th St




8th St SB approaching Canal St (actually just past Cary)



Glad those are there. Those movements had been unsigned for years.

There's a few more signs that popped up recently that I couldn't get pics of yet. One of which is a I-95 sign oddly placed on Hermitage Rd NB at Robin Hood Rd. I'm going to try for that one again today

There is a slip ramp from Robin Hood Rd to southbound I-95, is it referring to that?

Yes. The arrow on the sign is slanted and it's on Hermitage. It looks a little out of place to me.

VA-393 is now posted with an advance trailblazer shield and a trailblazer at the intersection on VA-234 northbound. I was impressed to see proper 3-digit shields with Series C numbers on both shields. Years ago there were LRS signs (aka white rectangles) but they have been long gone.

There were no shields on southbound VA-234, as there is no left turn into the NVCC facility.

I did not drive around Battlefield Pkwy to see if there were additional shields there.

Sorry I didn't get a pic!

I'm wondering if that means VA-394 is also posted now?

A while back I put in a request to have VA-338 re-signed, no dice. There was a VA-338 shield at Seven Corners that disappeared recently and it looks like VDOT doesn't want to bother until that whole area gets rebuilt.

I am not sure if Falls Church even wants VA-338 signed all the way down Hillwood Ave  :-/

I spoke to the same engineer about both 393 and 394 so I bet 394 is either posted or will be very soon.
