[QUOTE="fljab, post: 1112963, member: 19079"] Yes, coming from Tampa, I actually use the I-4 to the Greenway (SR 417) to the Beachline (SR 528) to I-95 to SR 46 into Mims, then north on US1. The Greenway can be skipped to avoid the tolls but I usually run it depending on what I think Orlando Traffic will be. If you want to avoid the tolls altogether, then take I-4 through Orlando to Exit 101A - HE Thomas jr Parkway which is SR46A and follow that East until it becomes SR46 (at the 17/92 intersection) and continue ~30 miles further to Mims. It's slower and more traffic, but I use that to cut over to certain parts of the upper Orlando area (Apopka, Altamonte Springs). The The eastern part of SR 46 (between I95 and Geneva) is a beautiful ride, but also well traveled because it's one of the only ways across the swamp, so don't get in a hurry. Many do (get in a hurry) making it a potentially dangerous section. I was just on this road Saturday when I went to Sanford for some salvage aluminum/new aux tank material. If you wanted to avoid the interstates as much as possible, then you'll have to go up and around and basically connect SR46 ~Mt. Dora, like maybe SR 50 to 471 through Webster, then 48 over to Howey-in-the-Hills, up 19 to 448 east and connect to SR 46 on the other side of 441 around Sorrento somewhere. I've used that route quite a few times. Going south, get to Lakeland and come over on a combo of 530, 531, eventually catching 532 east of St. Cloud. That will wind around through Mormon land to SR 520, which you can take east to 524 then I95 North. [/QUOTE]
