. US 360 is a four-lane divided highway for almost all of its length.

Route description

Danville to Keysville

US 360 begins at a four-way intersection on the north side of the Dan River, across from downtown Danville. Main Street heads south across the river into downtown Danville as SR 293, and north as SR 293 and SR 360 (SR 360 is a two-lane highway, the old alignment of US 360 from Danville to northeast of South Boston). The west leg of the intersection is Riverside Drive, which is followed by US 58 Business. US 360 heads east along four-lane divided River Street with US 58 Business, and passes under Norfolk Southern Railway's Danville District rail line. The highway's name changes to South Boston Highway on crossing Fall Creek and veering away from the Dan River. US 360 reaches the eastern end of its concurrency with US 58 Business and joins with US 58 at the highway's cloverleaf interchange with US 29 (Danville Expressway). US 360 and US 58 leave the city of Danville after passing along the north side of Danville Regional Airport.^[1]^[2]

US 360 and US 58 meet at the northern end of

SR 34 (Hodges Street).^[1]^[2]

After leaving South Boston, US 360 becomes James D. Hagood Highway again, and heads northeast past

partial-cloverleaf interchange that also marks the northern end of their respective business routes and the end of the freeway section of US 360.^[1]^[2]

Keysville to Richmond

US 360 briefly runs atop the

US 460 Business, which parallel the rail line into town as 2nd Street. US 360 and US 460 bypass the town to the north and receive the eastern end of their respective business routes before diverging at a partial interchange. There is no direct access from westbound US 360 to eastbound US 460 or from westbound US 460 to eastbound US 360; those movements are made via SR 723 (Lewiston Plank Road) or SR 49 (Watsons Wood Rd).^[1]^[2]

US 360 parallels Norfolk Southern's

US 360 Business (Goodes Bridge Road). North of the county seat, the highway crosses the rail line and has a partial-cloverleaf interchange with its business route before receiving the northern end of the business route west of Winterham, where the highway and railroad diverge. US 360 has a junction with SR 153 (Military Road) between Winterham and the Appomattox River, where the highway enters Chesterfield County. US 360 becomes Hull Street Road and passes through the village of Skinquarter before entering the suburban area surrounding Richmond. The U.S. Highway expands to eight lanes through Woodlake and crosses Swift Creek just downstream from the dam that holds back Swift Creek Reservoir west of the highway's cloverleaf interchange with SR 288.^[1]^[2]

US 360 continues northeast as a six-lane highway through additional suburban areas before its partial-cloverleaf interchange with

Main Street Station serving Amtrak's Northeast Regional trains during their four-block concurrency.^[1]^[2]

Richmond to Reedville

US 360 turns northeast onto 18th Street at

I‑295.^[1]^[2]

Northeast of I-295, US 360 gradually transitions from suburban to rural surroundings. The transition is complete by the time it crosses the

Tappahannock-Essex County Airport to Brays Fork, where the highway meets US 17 (Tidewater Trail) at a directional intersection. The U.S. highways run concurrently into the town of Tappahannock. Within the town, US 17 and US 360 cross Hoskins Creek and become a four-lane undivided highway. On the north side of the downtown area, US 360 turns east onto two-lane Queen Street and crosses the Rappahannock River on a high-level two-lane bridge.^[1]^[2]

US 360 expands to a four-lane divided highway on arriving in

SR 3 Business from Main Street to SR 3 (Historyland Highway). US 360 expands to a divided highway at the hamlet of Indian Field and passes through Haynesville before entering Northumberland County at Village. The highway veers northeast at Luttrellville and meets the eastern end of SR 202 (Hampton Hall Road) in Callao. At SR 202, US 360 turns east onto Northumberland Highway, which is two lanes within the unincorporated village. US 360 briefly expands to a four-lane divided highway but is two lanes through Lottsburg. US 360 has another divided-highway section before reducing to two lanes through Heathsville, where it passes St. Stephen's Episcopal Church and intersects SR 201 (Courthouse Road). The highway passes through Claraville, Horse Head, and Downings Corner before reaching its junction with SR 200 (Jesse DuPont Memorial Highway) at Burgess. US 360 has its final four-lane divided section between Folly and Lilian. At Beverlyville, it curves south toward Reedville. At SR 657 (Fleeton Road), US 360 follows Main Street south to its eastern terminus at the intersection of Main Street and Reed Avenue, which are both part of SR 644.^[1]^[2]

Special routes

Keysville business route

U.S. Route 360 Business in Charlotte County is the westernmost of several business routes of US 360. The highway, which runs 5.93 miles (9.54 km) between junctions with US 360 and US 15 south and north of Keysville, is entirely concurrent with US 15 Business.

Burkeville business route

U.S. Route 360/460 Business (US 360/460 Bus.) is the shared

Burkeville. US 360/460 Business begins at the partial-cloverleaf interchange where the two highways begin to run concurrently west of Burkeville. There is no direct access from the westbound bypass to the eastbound business routes. The business routes pass through the town as 2nd Street before rejoining US 360 and US 460 a short distance west of their eastern divergence point.^[1]^[3]

Amelia Court House business route

U.S. Route 360 Business

Location	Amelia Court House
Length	2.94 mi^[1] (4.73 km)

U.S. Route 360 Business (US 360 Business) is the business route of US 360 in Amelia County. The highway runs 2.94 miles (4.73 km) between junctions with US 360 west and northeast of Amelia Court House. US 360 Business is called Goodes Bridge Road and runs parallel to Norfolk Southern Railway's Richmond District along the northwest side of the village center, where the highway meets the western end of SR 38 (Virginia Street). Northeast of the village, the business route has a partial-cloverleaf interchange with US 360 before reaching its northern terminus at the mainline U.S. Highway.^[1]^[4]

Mechanicsville business route

U.S. Route 360 Business

Location	Mechanicsville
Length	0.78 mi^[1] (1,260 m)

U.S. Route 360 Business (US 360 Business) is the business route of US 360 in Hanover County. The highway runs 0.78 miles (1.26 km) between junctions with US 360 west and east of Mechanicsville. The business route begins as a one-way westbound ramp to westbound US 360. US 360 Business gains an eastbound lane and heads east as Mechanicsville Turnpike to an intersection with SR 156 (Cold Harbor Road) and SR 638 (Atlee Road). The business route continues a few more blocks before again becoming a one-way westbound ramp from westbound US 360. This westbound ramp is used to access SR 156 from westbound US 360 because there is no direct ramp in US 360's diamond interchange with SR 156.^[1]^[5]
