Highways
Hampton Roads boasts one of the country’s most modern interstate and state highway systems. Interstate 64, a major east-west route, encircles the metropolitan area. Due west are the principal north-south interstate highways, I-85 and I-95. Through Southampton County, I-95 is located just four miles west of the region. The Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel gives coastal highway traffic direct access to Hampton Roads, and saves 90 miles to the New York/New Jersey corridor.
