Here are 4 photos of Route 895, taken on
June 22, 2002.
Above, traveling on the Route 895 eastbound roadway. This is the beginning of
Route 895, and VA-150 Chippenham Parkway branches off to the right as the two
lane roadway which connects with the ramps to I-95 northbound and I-95
southbound. The Route 895 James River Bridge begins just ahead. The westbound
bridge is still under construction as I detailed in my main Route 895 article.
The elevated ramp ahead is Ramp G, the ramp from westbound Route 895 to
southbound I-95, also not yet open to traffic.

yards ahead of the previous photo. To the left is the construction of the
westbound bridge's sidespan of the main span which is being constructed by the
cast-in-place balanced cantilever segmental construction method. The blue steel
structure is the form traveler used to cast each reinforced concrete
15-foot-long bridge segment.
