Fictional I-66 runs due east through Sussex County. About the most exciting thing on the journey is the fact that it runs through Dover. Fictional I-66 would provide a non-stop route from Washington/Baltimore to Sea Isle City and (coupled with fictional I-99) all other shore resorts. The currently existing routing provides motorists several choices to Jersey Shore Resorts. 1) Drive to Lewes, and catch a ferry 2) Drive to just north of Newark, DE, cross the Delaware Memorial Bridge, and deal with a bunch of lights on US-40 in New Jersey 3) Drive to PA, take the Commodore Barry Bridge, and deal with a bunch of lights and local traffic on US-322 in New Jersey 4) Drive to Philadelphia, cross the Walt Whitman Bridge, then, come back south via NJ-42, Atlantic City Expressway, and Garden State Parkway. This provides freeway service to MOST shore resorts. 4B) Drive to Philadelphia, cross the Walt Whitman Bridge, then, come back south via NJ-42, NJ-55, NJ-47, (US-9). US-9 routing not necessary for trips to Wildwood. NJ-47 also has a bunch of lights from Port Elizabeth to Wildwood. Option 4 is the best option if you want to stay away from traffic lights. Option 2 is best for a straight run. My fictional I-66 is better than all of the above options.
