==Route description==
SR 403 begins at an intersection with SR 165 (Kempsville Road/Princess Anne Road), just northeast of the [[Newtown Road station]] (the eastern terminus of [[Hampton Roads Transit]]'s [[Tide Light Rail]]). The roadway continues southerly as South Newtown Road (an unnumbered street). From its southern terminus SR 403 heads north-northeasterly through [[Commercial district|commercial area]] as Newton Road, a four-lane [[divided highway]] that closely parallels the boundary between the cities of Norfolk and Virginia Beach.
 
Just short of a third of a mile ({{frac|1|2}} km) along its route, SR&nbsp;403 has a [[partial cloverleaf interchange]] with I‑264 (Virginia Beach Expressway), with provides access to I-64 (Hampton Roads Beltway)--at the interchange of the Interstate Highways just to the west of the SR&nbsp;403 interchange. After connecting with multiple minor side streets (Eathan Allen Lane/Cleveland Street, Coliss Avenue, Hawk Street, Elam Avenue, Taft Street, and Seal Street), SR&nbsp;403 reaches its northern terminus at an intersection with US&nbsp;58 (Virginia Beach Boulevard). Beyond the intersection Newtown Road continues as an unnumbered highway that enters the city of Virginia Beach.<ref name="VDOT Traffic Data">{{cite web|url=http://www.virginiadot.org/info/2010_traffic_data_by_jurisdiction.asp|title=2010 Traffic Data|publisher=Virginia Department of Transportation|year=2010|access-date=2012-01-25}}<br>* [http://www.virginiadot.org/info/resources/2010/AADT_064_Norfolk_2010.pdf City of Norfolk, City of Portsmouth, and City of Chesapeake] (PDF)</ref><ref name="Google Maps VA 403">{{google maps|url=https://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=Newtown+Rd&daddr=Newtown+Rd&hl=en&ll=36.848032,-76.176581&spn=0.026718,0.038581&sll=36.844238,-76.184435&sspn=0.01336,0.01929&geocode=FUIqMgIdbHh1-w%3BFeBZMgIdyJ51-w&vpsrc=6&mra=ls&t=h&z=15|title=Virginia State Route 403|access-date=2012-01-25}}</ref>
