Traveling North

[FLORIDA FRED]

Hi All -- I could use some help on planning a trip from Spring Hill Fl. to South Jersey. - I'm taking Florida 301 N to US 10 E to US 95 N -- No problem so far, I'll stay on 95 into VA. but I don't want to continue North bound on 95 because I don't want to go through Richmond, Washington. Baltimore -- so -- How do I go ? -- Do I take Sr 58 out of Emporia Va. and go over the Chessapeke Bay Tunnel/ Bridge and up Sr 13 to the Deleware Memorial Bridge or is there a better way ? -- I'm driving a 31 ft Class C and pulling a toad so whatever route has to be RV friendly as to fueling up and such. -- Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hello FF,

Looks like you have three options.

A. The CBBT and up 13 as you stated. Except for the toll, it is a nice liesurely drive compared to I-95.

B. US 301 off of I-95 at Exit 104 and up to Annapolis and across the bay on US 50 to US 13. 301 can be a pain depending on the time of day - it skirts the DC suburbs and has a bunch of traffic lights.

C. US 17 off of I-95 at Exit 133 at Fredericksburg to I-81 and the PA Turnpike in to NJ. Longer miles that way.

As I see it, if you don't mind paying the CBBT toll, I prefer the US 13 route.

I agree, the CBBT is the way to go for a leisurely drive.

Thanks Guys --- Looks like the CBBT is my route --- One more thing though -- My propane tank will be filled -- Is that a problem going over the bridge/ tunnel ?

Nope, but at some time before you get to the toll plaza, stop and turn off the main valve at the propane tank. They'll ask you. If you forget, there is a pull-off area just beyond the toll plaza.
