Three Notch'd Road - U.S. Route 250

U.S. Route 250

Much of the current U.S. Route 250 (established in the 1930s) from Short Pump in Henrico County west to Crozet in Albemarle County closely follows its path. In the City of Charlottesville, which was established at the head of navigation on the Rivanna River, West Main Street and part of University Avenue near the University of Virginia follow its original course. In the 1960s and 1970s, Interstate 64 was completed nearby, also closely paralleling the Three Notch'd Road.
