These routes intersect with I-64, which circles Hampton Roads, connecting with I-264, which ends at the Visitor Information Center and leads visitors directly to the oceanfront resort area.
Direct – The most direct way to Virginia Beach from a northern city like Baltimore is I-95 S to 1-64 E across the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel to the Virginia Beach-Norfolk Expressway, I-264 E.
Bridge-Tunnel Alternate – Take I-64 to I-664 and take the Monitor Merrimac Bridge-Tunnel access the bay to avoid congestion at the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel. I-664 re-connects with I-64 in Chesapeake; follow the signs to the Virginia Beach-Norfolk Expressway, I-264 E. I-64 and I-664 create a circle, or “beltway”, around Hampton Roads.
I-64 Alternate – For an alternate to I-64 from Richmond, take I-95 S from Richmond, exit U.S. 460 at Petersburg; follow 460, which intersects with I-64 in Chesapeake; take I-64 to the Virginia Beach-Norfolk Expressway, I-264 E.
Northeast Alternate – The most direct route from a northeast city like New York is U.S. 13 through Virginia’s Eastern Shore, across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel.
