Default RT 60 in Virgina

Anyone travel this road? We will be driving from Williamsburg to Waynesboro VA. and I was looking for a scenic alternate route other than 64. Thanks

Not a bad road, it will get jammed up in Williamsburg during rush hour or when Busch Gardens lets out. From there it goes country with few lights until you get close to Richmond, once on the other side of Richmond it gets real pretty. I have not been west of Richmond on 60 for along time though.

GREAT stretch of road, from BRP, to Gladstone (where I usually turn off and aim for home).. if you like curves and steep hills

what he said. rt 60 or midlothian turnpike as its called runs right threw my part of town. once you get up to RIC jump onto 295 around the city till ya get to I64 go alittle west jump onto 288 south will take you right to rt 60 and on to the wild blue

Was not impressed with Pierce's when I stopped there last summer. Then again I've been raised on Kansas City barbecue.

Easy, mellow road for the most part.

You can stop and check out some of the History that happen on that road.

lots of side pull off spots past the Williamsburg area.


Enjoy,

YB

I would run Rt5 until you get to 295 than do as said above a lot less traffic and a nice smooth and a little curvy road. No offense but Pierce's is not good at all to me!!
Also 250 and 33 parallels 64 west of 95, 250 will take you closer to Waynesboro!!
