Best hazmat route from Raleigh NC to near Buffalo NY?

1st route with tolls:
I-40W to I-40B/US-421N,
I-40B/US-421N to Exit 6B US-52N,
US-52N to I-74W/I-77N Wytheville,
I-74W/I-77N to I-77N,
I-77N to I-64W,
I-64W to exit 48 US-19N,
US-19N to I-79N,
I-79N to I-90E Buffalo

Non toll route has you running up I-95N to the I-495N around Washington, to the I-270N, run that till it links up with I-70W. Take the 70 to I-68W, then take 68 to I-79N till you hit I-90E. Ride the 90 till you hit your town.

The thing about PA is that they don't let you run hazmat through the tunnels on the I-76 turnpike.

 

The toll route would be the fastest. Takes forever to go across 68.

 

Second trip:

I-440 to US-1N/Capital Blvd,
US-1 to I-85E,
I-85E to I-95N,
I-95N to I-495N Tysons Corner,
I-495N back to I-95N,
I-95N to I-695W,
I-695N to I-83N,
I-83 to I-81S/US-322W,
I-81S/US-322W to US-22W/US-322,
US-22W/US-322 to US-11N/US-15N,
US-11N/US-15N to I-80E,
I-80E to I-180W,
I-180W to US-15N,
US-15N to I-86E to Binghamton

No reason to be on any toll or restricted tunnel routes...to Elmira.85-95...495-270-15-86(ny17)
Going same way to buffal2adds bout 35 miles from pc miler routing but much better running....if u need to follow the (imho) poor pc miler routing....there is no reason to get on pa like for the 1 exit breezewood to Bedford...since 30 runs adjacent to pike thru there and it is all 4lane w/no restrictions thru there....up to you

 

Not sure about 1st trip need to look at map. 2nd trip i85 to i66 to i81 to 17. No tolls. No restrictions. If you look at map real close you could go 85 to 95 off fredricksurg exit I thank Rt 3 to Warrenton va to 66 to 81 to 17. Good luck
