Length | 11.0 mi [10] (17.7 km) |
U.S. Route 220 Alternate is a 11.0-mile (17.7 km) route that appeared in 1979 as a concurrency with US 460/US 221 from the junction of I-581/US 220 (Exit 7) in downtown Roanoke and then north on the route of former secondary State Route 604 from Bonsack in Roanoke County to just north of Cloverdale in Botetourt County. [10] There, its terminus is at an interchange of I-81, US 220 and US 11 (Exit 150).
In the 1930s and 40s, the Bonsack to Cloverdale route was part of VA 114 until it was downgraded to SR 604 in April 1944. [11] In the 1990s, the section from Bonsack to Cloverdale was widened to four lanes and it serves as a bypass for US 460 seeking to avoid Roanoke traffic congestion.
Previously, the Rocky Mount bypass was designated as US 220 Alternate from its construction in 1960-61 until it was changed to US 220 Bypass between 1968 and 1970. [10]

Location | Bedford, Pennsylvania |
---|---|
Existed | 1973–present |
U.S. Route 220 Business is a 12-mile (19 km) route following the original alignment of its parent. In 1973, US 220 became a freeway between Bedford and Altoona, Pennsylvania, and the old tract of the route near Bedford became a business loop. Currently, US 220 has been partnered with Interstate 99; however, the freeway segment south of the Pennsylvania Turnpike is currently not yet part of the interstate system, which may or may not affect the future status of this road. South of the borough, the route winds over the hilly approach to the town at much steeper grades than does the freeway. It then reaches several stoplights as it serves as a north-south main street. After exiting the municipality, it briefly becomes four lanes as it accommodates a variety of travel services at the interchanges with the Turnpike and I-99. Travelling north, the route flattens out, before meeting US 220 at I-99 Exit 3.
Location | Blair County, Pennsylvania |
---|---|
Existed | 1996–present |
U.S. Route 220 Business is a 37-mile (60 km) route following the original alignment of its parent. The route begins at Exit 15 of Interstate 99, in the southernmost point of Blair County, Pennsylvania. After travelling over a largely rural two-lane segment, it briefly becomes four lanes as it enters metropolitan Altoona; the highway then spends nearly a mile co-signed with two-lane U.S. Route 22. Afterward, it becomes Plank Road between Hollidaysburg and Altoona, feature four-lanes, a center turning lane, and a copious commercial development. Eventually the route becomes the more suburban Pleasant Valley Boulevard, splitting off into Valley View Boulevard between 23rd street and 2nd street with Pleasant Valley and Valley View being one-way roads, before they rejoin again into Pleasant Valley again, and it transitions to a two-laner before leaving the urban area. A cosign with Pennsylvania Route 764 occurs, as the route travels toward Tyrone, through which it serves as a narrow main street. After heading through several more small towns, the route rejoins I-99 at Exit 52.
Location | Centre County, Pennsylvania |

Existed | 2002–present |
U.S. Route 220 Alternate is a 22-mile (35 km) route following the original alignment of its parent. As part of the ongoing completion of Interstate 99, U.S. 220 was shifted on to the Mount Nittany Expressway around State College, Pennsylvania. This portion received an alternate instead of a business designation because it deviates from the route's current course. The route begins in Huston Township, and is multiplexed consecutively with Pennsylvania Route 504, Pennsylvania Route 144, Pennsylvania Route 150, and Interstate 80 in its final 6 miles (9.7 km).
