This is a diamond interchange between Interstate 81 and U.S. Route 11 (Lee Highway), via Frontage Road 10 (Rifton Drive), east of Marion Virginia. Three of the four ramps connect to Frontage Road 10, just south of parallel US-11. The exit ramp from southbound I-81 is a hook ramp directly onto U.S. Route 11. The interchange was constructed around 1963.

Prior to 1993, with the reconstruction of the bridge over the railroad, US-11 from the south headed towards I-81 directly. A turn was required just west of the interchange to stay on US-11
