Alternate route to avoid I-95 NJ to FL

I am looking for an alternate way to go to NJ to Fl to avoid the congestion from NJ or Delaware to Richmond VA or North Carolina. Traveling in a motor home so height restrictions & avoiding tunnels are an issue.

  • Cross over the Delaware Memorial Bridge and follow signs for Dover. Get onto Rt 1 South (toll road) which is a very nice road. South of Dover, get onto Rt13 South all the way to Virginia. Take the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel which has a 13'6" clearance. From there get onto Rt 13 South to Rt 64 East where you can pick up Rt 17 South to avoid Rt 95 OR take Rt 58 West to get back onto Rt 95 South at Emporia Virginia.

    The CBBT is a great ride and many Motor homes and big trucks use it. Just turn off your propane ahead of time.
