driving from I-10

[PJean710]

This december will be the first time I've driven to WDW since the Western Way opened. My questions is on, Sunday afternoon will it save that much time on my way to POFQ?

NO, google maps shows the I-4 route to be 6 minutes shorter and 1 mile longer.

Unless you're in a hurry for some reason, I would without question take the 429 to the western entrance.

It gets you off the god-awful turnpike a little sooner and keeps you off of hideous I4 completely.

Plus, the 429 is a very pleasant drive with very light traffic. And you can get your Disney vacation started early by looking off the the east and seeing the taller Disney structures in the distance.

Thanks. I had a feeling time and mile wise it was the same. I-4 can be a parking lot most times. Do you guys think that on Sunday afternoon it would be?

Benn both ways. Western Way just seems so much quicker. I4 can be worse than the I10 Mississippi Bridge in Baton Rouge at times.

Go western way, much quicker and you dont ohave to deal with the stresses of I4!

 

[PJean710]

I was planning on doing western way. I just wanted to make sure it was worth it. On a related note are there some cheap hotels on western way, like a winngate?

 

[Atta83]

Nope no hotels on western way.

 

[PJean710]

What about hotels on 429?

429 is a ghost town til past western way.
