After passing through Cologne and Plain View, the state highway veers east and crosses the Poropotank River into Gloucester County.

SR 14 and US 17 follow the four-lane divided highway southeast to Gloucester Courthouse, where US 17 bypasses the county seat on its way to Yorktown.

SR 14 and US 17 Business head east on Main Street, along which the highways pass through a roundabout surrounding the county courthouse.

Just east of the stream at Fort Nonsense, SR 3 turns north onto Windsor Road to head for Middlesex County and the Northern Neck.

The state highways run concurrently south to the village of Mathews, where SR 198 veers east as Buckley Hall Road toward Moon.
