Route description

SR 191 begins at a four-way intersection with US 13, US 58, US 460, and US 460 Alternate in the Bower's Hill area of the city of Chesapeake. US 13, US 58, US 460 head west as Military Highway toward Suffolk; just west of the intersection is the U.S. Highways' interchange with Interstate 664 (I-664) (Hampton Roads Beltway). The south leg of the intersection is also Military Highway, which US 13 and US 460 follow toward Norfolk and Virginia Beach. The east leg of the intersection is Airline Boulevard, which US 58 and US 460 Alternate follow toward Portsmouth. The north leg of the intersection is SR 191, which immediately turns west and crosses over I-664 with no access. The state highway crosses Goose Creek, a tributary of the Western Branch Elizabeth River, and gradually curves north. SR 191 intersects Dock Landing Road before reaching its northern terminus at SR 337 (Portsmouth Boulevard) in the Jolliff section of Chesapeake.
