Marathon Route and Parking

It's marathon time again, which means we've got some challenges for this upcoming Shabbat. I've talked with the director of the marathon who has given me a route to the Retreat Hospital garage. 

Here's the route to avoid the roadblocks from the marathon:

From the South or East of Richmond:  Take 95 North to Exit 78 (Boulevard). The exit dumps you onto Hermitage Road.  Make a left, going South on Hermitage. Cross Broad Street (Hermitage becomes Meadow). Continue on Meadow to Grove and make a right. Continue on Grove to Robinson and make a left. The Retreat Hospital garage entrance is on Robinson between Grove and Floyd. Proceed to the 3rd floor or higher. Park and walk to Tikvat. Click here for map

From the North or West of Richmond:  Take 95 South or 64 East to 195 South. Go on 195 South to the Downtown Expressway and go clear around the city until 95 North. Take 95 North to Exit 78 (Boulevard). The exit dumps you onto Hermitage Road. Make a left, going South on Hermitage. Cross Broad Street (Hermitage becomes Meadow).
