Route description
SR 194 begins at an intersection with SR 166 (Princess Anne Road) east of Downtown Norfolk and north of Norfolk Industrial Park. The state highway heads north as two-lane undivided Sewells Point Road. North of a grade crossing of a Norfolk Southern rail line, SR 194 expands to a five-lane road with a center left-turn lane at Azalea Garden Road. The state highway passes through the Elmhurst neighborhood to a six-way intersection with Norview Avenue and Chesapeake Boulevard. SR 247 heads southwest as Chesapeake Boulevard and east as Norview Avenue; westbound Norview Avenue and northbound Sewells Point Road are unnumbered streets. SR 194 continues north through the Norview neighborhood on Chesapeake Boulevard, a six-lane divided highway.[1][2]
North of Norview High School, SR 194 has a partial cloverleaf interchange with I-64 (Hampton Roads Beltway) that only contains ramps in the northeast and southwest quadrants of the interchange. Northbound SR 194 has an exit ramp to and an entrance ramp from westbound I-64. Southbound SR 194 has an exit ramp to and an entrance ramp from eastbound I-64. The missing connections with I-64 are made via SR 247 to the south and SR 165 (Little Creek Road) to the north of the Interstate. North of SR 165, SR 194 becomes a four-lane divided highway north to its terminus at US 60 (Ocean View Avenue) in the Ocean View neighborhood of Norfolk.[1][2]
