'''U.S. Route 460 Business''' ('''US 460 Business''') is a {{convert|7|mi|km|adj=mid|-long}} [[business route]] of [[Petersburg, Virginia]]. The route begins at [[Interstate 85 in Virginia|Interstate 85]] where the concurrency between [[U.S. Route 1 in Virginia|US 1]] and US 460 terminates at Exit 63. US 1/BUS 460 makes a sharp turn to the east around Central State Hospital and becomes West Washington Street. After running beneath a railroad bridge signed for [[Seaboard System Railroad|Seaboard Systems]], the routes become a one-way pair with northeast-bound traffic shifting to West Wythe Street and southeast-bound traffic remaining along West Washington Street. At South Street, the routes are joined by [[Virginia State Route 36 Truck (Petersburg)|Virginia Truck Route 36]]. The concurrency with US 1/VA 36 Truck ends at [[U.S. Route 301 in Virginia|US 301]] (Adams Street), and US BUS 460 joins southbound US 301 itself. US 301/BUS 460 continue to run down East Wythe and Washington Streets, and after the first interchange with [[Interstate 95 in Virginia|I-95]] at Exit 52, the routes turn south onto South Crater Street. This concurrency only lasts until the second interchange with I-95 at Exit 50 B-C. Here, the eastbound lanes join the southbound frontage road of I-95, while the westbound one joins Winfield Road, which contains two-way traffic until it encounters the northbound I-95 off ramp for Exit 50B. Eastbound US BUS 460's concurrency with I-95 ends at a wye interchange at Exit 50A, and eastbound and westbound segments rejoin again along the route's only independent segment, which ends at Wagner Avenue where it terminates with both its parent route and [[Virginia State Route 106|SR 106]].
