"[2] From its southern origin to approximately the interchange with US 50, West Ox Road is a four to six lane divided highway.

West Ox Road passes SR 7435, Post Forest Drive.

It passes by smaller single-family houses and Frying Pan Farm Park, and intersects with SR 657 (Centreville Road), bends to the right and ends at SR 7605 (Copper Ridge Road).

West Ox Rd is a stretch of the original Ox Rd, first dug by Robert Carter I and the Frying Pan Mining Company in the 1720s atop a gentle ridge, with occasional views of the Bull Run Mountains and Blue Ridge to the west.

It was much more winding then; at one spot there was a barn about 2 feet from the two-lane roadway, where there was a hairpin turn, and SR 664 (Waples Mill Road) joined West Ox Road at a very sharp angle.
