Primary - Secondary - History

Interstate 664 (I-664) is an Interstate Highway in the U.S. state of Virginia, forming part of the Hampton Roads Beltway. It is a connection between Interstate 64 in Newport News and I-64's east end (where it meets Interstate 264) near Bowers Hill in Chesapeake. I-664 is about 14 miles shorter than the bypassed piece of I-64.[citation needed] In addition to Chesapeake and Hampton, I-664 passes through Suffolk and Newport News along the way.

I-664 was not an original part of the Interstate Highway System authorized in 1956; it was part of the 1,500 miles that were added in 1968.[citation needed] One of the more recent portions of the IHS to be built in Virginia, I-664 was completed in April 1992. I-664 includes the 4.6-mile-long Monitor-Merrimac Memorial Bridge-Tunnel across Hampton Roads between Newport News and Suffolk.

In January 1997, the 56-mile-long I-64/I-664 loop was designated and signed as the Hampton Roads Beltway. The inner loop of the beltway is signed along I-664 north, and the outer loop is on I-664 south.
