State Route 280 (SR 280) is a primary state highway in the U.S. state of Virginia. The highway runs 5.0 miles (8.0 km) from SR 42 in Harrisonburg east to U.S. Route 33 (US 33) in Massanetta Springs in central Rockingham County. SR 280 is a four-lane southern bypass of Harrisonburg that connects SR 42 and US 33 with US 11 and SR 253 outside of the city core.
SR 280 begins at a four-legged intersection with SR 42 (High Street) on the western edge of the independent city of Harrisonburg. The west leg of the intersection is unnumbered Erickson Avenue, which is the same name the state highway takes as it heads southeast as a four-lane divided highway. SR 280 intersects the Harrisonburg–Dayton rail line at grade, curves around a subdivision as an undivided highway, and regains a median before it intersects US 11 (Main Street). The state highway continues southeast as Stone Spring Road, which crosses over Black Run and the Harrisonburg–Staunton rail line. SR 280 leaves the city limits of Harrisonburg and enters unincorporated Rockingham County shortly after it crosses over I-81 with no access. The highway curves east before its junction with SR 253 (Port Republic Road). SR 280 continues east through the unincorporated community of Massanetta Springs until it reaches its eastern terminus at US 33 (Spotswood Trail) south of Harrisonburg.
