Pickup near or at Airports
Here are some important tips to note before you hit the road in Roanoke.
Roanoke has a well-planned road network with major routes like I-81 and I-581 running through town, connecting it to places like Virginia Tech and the Blue Ridge Mountain attractions.
- Speed limits: Always follow posted speed limit signs. Virginia's default speed limits are typically 25 mph in residential and urban areas, and up to 70 mph on interstate highways like I-81.
- Peak traffic: Roads get busy during the usual morning and evening rush hour traffic hours (especially along the I-581 and major roads like Peters Creek Road and Electric Road). Virginia Tech game days can also create heavy traffic on I-81 toward Blacksburg.
- Mountain driving: The Blue Ridge Parkway and mountain roads have lower speed limits and can be winding. Take your time and enjoy the scenic views.
- Weather advice: Be prepared for occasional snow and ice in winter months (Dec-Feb), and thunderstorms in the summer months (Jun-Aug). Take extra precautions during this period (driving slower and allowing extra stopping distance), especially if you're heading up the Blue Ridge Parkway. Consider an SUV for better handling on mountain terrain.
There are over 3,500 street parking lots available in downtown Roanoke, along with parking garages like Elmwood Park Parking Garage on Williamson Road SE. You can also find lots at shopping precincts like Valley View Mall. Always check parking signage for fees and time restrictions to avoid penalties.
Parking at many of Virginia's Blue Ridge trails and attractions is usually free. But lots can fill up quickly during peak seasons like weekends and holidays. Try to go during off-peak times if possible. It's also advisable to check the Visit the Roanoke website for the latest updates on car park closures near popular trails before heading out.
There are no toll roads in Roanoke or the greater Southwest Virginia area, so you won't have to worry about having this as an additional cost during your drives around the city.
There are plenty of places to fuel or charge up in Roanoke:
- Gas stations are scattered at strategic locations throughout the city, particularly along major roads like Orange Avenue.
- For EV drivers, there are 70+ charging stations within a 9-mile radius of the city. You'll mainly find them at shopping malls, hotels, public parking areas, and attractions like the Virginia Museum of Transportation.
Use apps like PlugShare or Google Maps to find the nearest station or charging points and check real-time availability.
Renting a car is highly recommended in Roanoke. While there's some public transit (Valley Metro), it's limited, and rideshares can be expensive or slow (especially if you're traveling to mountain attractions).
With a car rental (Roanoke, VA), you're free to enjoy the Blue Ridge Parkway scenic drive, visit Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, or venture further out to places like Natural Bridge State Park or the charming town of Floyd.
