Drive Character
Expect a very different experience than a typical interstate trek, as this route features zero highway miles. Instead, you will navigate a turn-heavy local path that relies on roads like Jefferson Avenue, East Main Street, and George F Highway. This design makes the drive feel much more involved, requiring your full attention as you transition through various local corridors. Because the route prioritizes local roads over high-speed thoroughfares, you should anticipate a steady pace rather than the monotony of a long-distance highway grind. It is a technical drive that demands you stay engaged with every turn along the way.
Expect a mix of faster highway mileage and slower local approaches near the beginning or end.
There are about 35 navigation steps in the underlying route data, so the final approach matters more than the middle miles.
Keystone Shortway is the longest continuous segment at about 63.3 miles.
