Expect a turn-heavy local drive that keeps you engaged behind the wheel. Unlike a monotonous highway cruise, this route features zero percent highway share, meaning you will be navigating through local intersections and town streets for the duration of the 51-minute trip. The path relies on a series of turns along West Main, South Adams, and West Perry Streets, requiring your full attention as you transition between these roads. Because the route is entirely local, there is no long, uninterrupted stretch of high-speed driving to settle into. You should prepare for a hands-on experience that rewards careful navigation over long-distance cruising.
