Notes
  • Significance: The Route 1 Nottoway River Bridge is an example of a short-span concrete through-arch highway bridge of the extremely rare tied-arch type. The bridge was part of the final construction project completing the realignment and concrete paving of Route 1 from Washington, D.C., through Virginia to Raleigh, North Carolina, an important event in national and state transportation history.
