They are in a special class with respect to federal funding. These interstate highways are as follows:

Primary highways, totaling 8111 miles (13,053 km), consist of U.S. Routes, designated and numbered by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, and primary state routes, designated and numbered by the VDOT.
