Creation: Appeared as a newly numbered route in 1982. Ran only as far north as VA 7. This is the 3rd VA 401.
| Adjustments: VA 401 was extended to VA 420 in 1986. Posted: Some reassurance markers exist, white border variety. Dan F reports in late August 2004 that a normal looking miniature 401 shield has appeared near Edsall Rd. Comment: Van Dorn St. from southern city limit of Alexandria to Seminary Rd.(VA 420). VDOT atlas also implies northern leg of Kenmore Ave. connecting to Seminary Rd. is VA 401. Russ Blau says there are only 401 signs south of Duke St., although the route extends to Seminary Rd. Perhaps this explains the lack of signage on parts of 401 and 402, and all of 420. | Previous VA 401's: |
VA 401 #1: Appeared in 1929. Was in 2 pieces: 1. VA 44 (curr VA 49) Victoria to Dundas. Victoria to Kenbridge had been part of VA 323. 2. NC line near Gasburg north to 5 miles north of VA 12 (curr US 58 Bus) Lawrenceburg. This was not previously numbered. In 1930-31, this became continuous, and VA 401 between Victoria and Kenbridge became VA 48. VA 401 was renumbered as VA 34 #2 in July 1933. Today it is all of VA 137, and all of VA 46 south of VA 46-137 jct.
VA 401 #2: First mentioned in CTB Minutes in September 1957, as the route assigned to the Emporia Bypass. VA 401 was also in the October 1957 minutes describing a new route from US 1 Triangle to VA 350 Woodbridge. VA 401 was the assigned state route number to I-95. It was last mentioned in the CTB minutes in February 1987. VA 401 was not likely ever signed as such. |

Creation: Appeared in 1982. This had not previously been numbered. Likely started out as VA 7 to I-395 only. This is the 3rd VA 402.
| Adjustments: VA 402 was extended south to VA 420 in 1986. Posting: There are 3 reassurance signs. All are on VA 402 NB, and all are north of VA 7. 2 of them are white border signs. Comment: North Quaker Lane. Perhaps it is significant that that part of VA 402 is on the city/county line: the northbound lanes are in Alexandria, and the southbound lanes are in Arlington. | Previous VA 402's: |
VA 402 #1: Appeared in 1929 as a renumbering of VA 122 #2. Ran from US 1 Rawlings to VA 12 (curr US 58) Edgerton. VA 402 was renumbered as VA 140 in July 1933. Today it is SR 712.

Creation: Appeared in 1982. Was not previously numbered. Originally ran from VA 165 Princess Anne Rd. to US 58 Virginia Beach Blvd. This is the 3rd VA 403.
| Adjustments: At some point (by 1991) VA 403 was extended north of US 58 to some indeterminate end point (Diamond Springs Rd?). The current VDOT route logs show US 58 as again its endpoint. Posting: Was fully posted at US 58 in the early 90's in both directions, but not identified at all from I-264/VA 44. A. Froehlig reports VA 403 is still posted at US 58 in 2005. Comment:Newtown Rd.

Today it is part of VA 49.
VA 404 #2: Appears in the September 1957 CTB Minutes as a new road project around US 258 in Hampton. The December 1957 minutes show VA 404 also as a new road around US 17 Warwick. VA 404 became VA 168 in March 1958 (the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel began as VA 168 earlier than this). Today this is all part of I-64. |

VA 407 #1: Appeared in 1929 as new routing. It ran from VA 410 (curr VA 145) Chesterfield to VA 10 (curr SR 609) Garysville. In 1930-31, a second piece ran south from US 60 (curr US 360) South Richmond towards Chesterfield. Both pieces were renumbered as VA 37 #2 in July 1933. Today all of this is part of VA 10.
VA 407 #2: Appears in CTB Minutes March 1957 and May 1958 referring to a road project from NCL of Bristol to State St. in Bristol. This became I-381 and VA 381. VA 407 #3: Appeared in 1982. Not immediately previously numbered, but was SR 603 in the past. Ran on Indian River Rd. from VA 168 South Norfolk to VA 190 Kempsville. It was posted at US 13 Military Hwy and a couple places west of there, but not posted anywhere else. VA 407 was decommissioned to no number in 2001 according to the VDOT route log. Indian River Rd. from VA 190 to VA 168. A. Froehlig reports that as late as 2002 there was a US 407 shield at the east end of the Norfolk portion. He reports in July 2005 that it is still there. A. Froehlig also reported in July 2005 that VA 407 is still pretty well posted, except in the City of Virginia Beach. |

VA 408 #2: Appears in January 1959 CTB Minutes as a project - "Int..Route 130, (Near Natural Bridge)-1.533 Miles N. of -Int Route 130, Rockbridge County" This was probably meant to describe a piece of I-81 - perhaps it was envisioned to keep US 11 on the new route and extend VA 130 west to meet the new route, but this never occurred. VA 408 #3: Appeared in 1982. Was not immediately previously numbered, but was part of SR 615. VA 408 was First Colonial Rd. from VA 279 to US 58 Bus. This was the only VA 4xx posted well in Virginia Beach, though only in circles. Was not posted at I-264/VA 44. VA 408 was decommissioned in 2001 according to the VDOT route log. Knowing Va. Beach, VA 408 signs are probably scheduled to be removed around 2040 (see VA 305). A. Froehlig reports a 408 circle still up at VA 279 in July 2005. |
