The result was delete. No Consensus on the redirect issue. I'm not going to create the redirect, but if somebody else wants to, they can do so on their own. -- RoySmith (talk) 21:05, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment: Has wp:BEFORE been performed?  No assertion about it in the deletion nomination.  Searching should be done under "Stony Point Pass" and the county road number as one alternative name, and perhaps other names. --Doncram (talk) 06:08, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete- A google search only comes up with real estate listings. If another editor is going to make accusations that the person purposing deletion didn't do a BEFORE search, the least he could do is provide some sources.--Rusf10 (talk) 20:47, 20 February 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete. I could find nothing notable about this road and am a big fan of this essay. (Dushan Jugum (talk) 02:14, 26 February 2019 (UTC)).
 * Comment. This page seems to have been made to get pointy with the US Government. See this from pages creation "Except for a small section the road remains unpaved; this fact remains true despite the fact that the United States Tax payers have paved roads in Iraq and Afghanastan. Stony Point Pass is a pock marked lunar landscap that could be used by NASA to test new lunar vehicles". (Dushan Jugum (talk) 02:37, 26 February 2019 (UTC)).
 * Redirect to Virginia State Route 600, as it is one of several secondary state highways in the state with that number. This is something a very basic WP:BEFORE would have found as a alternative to deletion and I am shocked nobody bothered to do that over the course of this discussion.

 * There seems to be a few dozen of these on Virginia State Route 600, do you recommend a redirect for all of them? (Dushan Jugum (talk) 19:56, 1 March 2019 (UTC)).
 * I think there are better uses of our time than creating redirects for all of them, and some might share names with other notable roads in which case they shouldn't be redirected at all, but redirects are cheap and I don't see the harm in redirecting this one.

 * Delete. I wondered if this was as notable as Snake Pass, but no - couldn't find any suitable sources. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  11:12, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
