==Route description==
[[File:2017-07-13 10 52 13 View south along Virginia State Route 189 (Quay Road) at Virginia State Secondary Route 714 (Pretlow Road) in Kingsdale, Southampton County, Virginia.jpg|thumb|right|View south along SR 189 at SR 714 in Kingsdale]]
SR 189 begins at an intersection with US 258 (Smiths Ferry Road) in [[Southampton County, Virginia|Southampton County]] south of the city of Franklin. The state highway heads northeast as two-lane undivided South Quay Road, which passes close to a bend in the [[Blackwater River (Virginia)|Blackwater River]] before curving east to cross the river into the [[independent city]] of Suffolk. The state highway curves north and meets the western end of [[Virginia State Route 272|SR 272]], onto which the South Quay Road name continues while SR 189 heads north as an unnamed road. SR 189 meets [[U.S. Route 58|US 58]] and US 258 (Franklin Bypass) at a [[partial cloverleaf interchange]]. The roadway continues north as US 258 toward Franklin while SR 189 [[concurrency (road)|runs concurrently]] with US 58 east on the four-lane [[divided highway]]. The two highways meet the eastern end of SR 272 and assume the name South Quay Road. Just west of the community of [[Holland, Virginia|Holland]], SR 189 splits north from US 58 along two-lane undivided South Quay Road. The state highway has a grade crossing of [[Norfolk Southern Railway]]'s [[Franklin District (Norfolk Southern Railway)|Franklin District]] just south of its eastern terminus at US 58 Business, which heads east as Holland Road and east as Ruritan Boulevard.<ref name="VDOT Traffic Data"/><ref name="Google Maps VA 189"/>
