State Route 337 (SR 337, also called Virginia Route 337, VA 337, or simply Route 337) is a primary state highway in the South Hampton Roads area of the U.S. state of Virginia. It runs east from Suffolk to Portsmouth, where it dead-ends at the decommissioned Jordan Bridge. It continues on the east side of the southern branch of the Elizabeth River in the South Norfolk neighborhood of Chesapeake. There it turns north, through Norfolk, crossing the Berkley Bridge into downtown, and ending at the Naval Air Station Norfolk at Sewell`s Point. Most of its length was formed when other highways were rerouted: U.S. Route 460 from Suffolk to South Norfolk, State Route 170 (now State Route 168) from South Norfolk to downtown Norfolk, and U.S. Route 17 from downtown Norfolk to Sewell`s Point (the former location of the Newport News Ferry). Prior to the November 8, 2008 closure of the Jordan Bridge, SR 337 was the only numbered highway to cross all three branches of the Elizabeth River. It still crosses the western branch as Portsmouth Boulevard at the Hodges Ferry Bridge and the eastern branch on the Berkley Bridge. The Berkley Bridge is a drawbridge. SR 337 also crosses the Lafayette River in the city of Norfolk.
