Route Description
SR 232 begins at an interchange with I-81 just east of the Interstate's bridge over the New River just south of Radford in Montgomery County. The interchange consists of a half-trumpet with northbound I-81 and a pair of ramps—one straight and one loop—with southbound I-81. SR 232 enters the city of Radford at its intersection with SR 605 (Little River Road), which follows the river south to its impoundment, Claytor Lake. The state highway heads north as a four-lane divided highway through an S-curve, then reduces to two lanes at the southern edge of the city's street grid at Highland Avenue. SR 232 heads straight north as the main commercial street of the city. The state highway gradually curves to the northeast before reaching its northern terminus at US 11. Main Street continues east as US 11 toward the eastern part of Radford; US 11 also heads north as Lee Highway to cross the New River into Pulaski County.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“In the mountains the shortest route is from peak to peak, but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are spoken should be big and tall of stature.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“It is possible—indeed possible even according to the old conception of logic—to give in advance a description of all ‘true’ logical propositions. Hence there can never be surprises in logic.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
