EspañolU.S. ROUTE 15 IN VIRGINIA
(Redirected from U.S. Route 15 (Virginia))
'U.S. Route 15 in Virginia' runs north-south through the central part of the state.
US 15 generally follows the Old Carolina Road, which connected North Carolina (at what was then North Carolina Highway 75) with Frederick, Maryland through Virginia. It was added to the state highway system in 1918 as 'State Route 2' and renumbered 'State Route 32' in the 1923 renumbering. In 1926, US 15 was designated along the whole of SR 32. The SR 32 designation was dropped in the 1933 renumbering, and was immediately reused on another route south of Petersburg. The number was again reused on its current alignment in the early 1940s to match North Carolina Highway 32.
