I will be traveling this Thursday from Opelika, AL (1 hour east of Montgomery, AL on I-85) to the Norfolk, VA area.
The most direct route would be on I-85 up through Atlanta; Greenville, SC; Charlotte, NC; Raleigh/Durham, NC; into VA and then east on US 58 into Norfolk. An alternate route is I-85 to ATL, I-285S to I-20E and then pickup I-95 north into VA and then onto US58 into Norfolk. My first thought was the I-95 route even though it is 25 mi longer I thought I'd hit less traffic than going through all the metro areas I'd hit in ATL, Greenville/Spartanburg, Charlotte, Raleigh, etc. Do any listees out there have recommendations on this route choice? I checked the DOT site for delays on I-95 but none show up. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I'll be leaving about 3PM CT Thursday so I'll be hitting downtaown ATL about rush hour where as if I go S of ATL on I-20 I thought I might miss the usual gridlock N of ATL on I-85.
