Lk I am going to Orlando Wed. of this week and have been hearing on news about I-95 being closed because of fires. Is there any web site I can get current road info before I leave. I hear it is pretty bad in Central Florida at this time. I will be traveling on I-95 so I am interested where it is closed.
well it was worse than I realized..and its fires all just north and east of Orlando..
if comimg from I95 from GA....go to outer Jacksonville....take 295Ww to 10W...hit 301S to 27S to US 4 East to Orlando....maybe 1-2 hr longer from Florida line...look at a map and get EXACT US 27 northern connection from 301 or some other road from US 10W..
Depending where fires and smoke blowing are that day...might be better and quicker to go OUTER Jacksonville 295W/S (north side of jacksonville) to US 17 S (south side of jacksonville) to Us 4 (Comes out near Orlando)...this route is quickest other tha I95 but if fires are 20 miles inland (West) from I95,then its trouble...
could go 295S/W to 10W to 301S to Starke, then take 100S/E to lower US17S...and comes out by US4 and orlando
or lastly again 295S/W to 10W to 301S to US27S to US4 East to Orlando...this will definitely clear U of fires but take 2-3 hours longer in Florida..but pretty rolling hills and horse county
BTW 295S/W loops all round Jacksonville so U don't have to drive thru it downtown, which SUCKS!
U can ALWAYS come from Atlanta Ga down I75 South to Tampa..US4 east to Orlnado
