Harbor Drive edit

Latest comment: 3 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

This article correctly cites VDOT publications that show 337 ALT follows Harbor Drive from Turnpike Road to US 58. The only problem is that Harbor Drive does not physically exist between Turnpike Road and US 58; it appears to be a paper street running along the right-of-way of the MLK Expressway. The absence of an intersection can be verified using Google Maps or various other published sources; the fact that there is a paper street can be inferred from the Virginia GIS, which shows addresses (700 Harbor Dr and 726 Harbor Dr) just north of Turnpike Rd under the expressway, where no physical street exists. In fact, Google Street View images from 2012 show Harbor Drive formerly existed in this location, and was signed as 337 ALT, but was demolished for construction of the expressway. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 21:05, 7 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
