Route south

Does anybody have route suggestions from north central Mass. To Richmond Virginia. I would like to avoid Connecticut 84 and the horrible Treck across the tapanzee bridge followed by the NJ tpk and Garden State pkwy. Will appreciate suggestions. Traveling in Winnebago View towing 2014 Honda CRV.

  • It's been many years since I've gone across the TZ and it was good back then. Regardless, I'd do whatever it takes to stay off 95 and connect up with 81 until you can cut SE to Richmond on 64.
  • I like the tapanzee and take 684 to get there. I never take the NJ pike because I don't like the tolls. If you take 91 south to 691 west to 84 you miss Hartford and the bad part of 84.
  • WOW... if you want to avoid 84 and 95 ( to get to the TAP ) unless you take 684.. which you still need to be on 84 to catch 684 ... ????:h

    This will require too much thinking for me at work , so I will have to digest it and get back later tonight...
  • Awaiting really good replies I would go to www.maps.yahoo.com, click on Directions, and put in your start and finish addresses. The program will show you a suggested route but you can click and drag the original route to be whatever you want. The program will tell you how many miles it is, and how long it will take, with whatever route you pick. There may be other programs also but this is the one I use.
