From the Delaware Bridge to Bordentown (Turnpike exit 7, i295 exit 56) it is a well-moving, free highway that goes all the same places and whose traffic isn't even slowed down by the constant construction. I've never had a problem on it. It also has way more exits than the Turnpike, so you can hop off for gas/snacks much easier. Just watch out for the merge/anti-merge around Exit 26!

The traffic can get a little congested, but not too badly most of the time. There is access to New Castle (various State offices, airport) and Wilmington. And, then, there's the Delaware Memorial Bridge! Of course, bridges are awesome and this one doesn't fail! Their are lots of exits, off-ramps, interchanges, and junctions--adding to the excitement. And, there are numerous cool road signs--not to mention the digital signs before and after the bridge! Awesome!
