Interstate 64 runs 943 miles from Wentzville, Missouri (just west of St. Louis) to Chesapeake, Virginia, crossing the central US through the Ohio River valley and the southern Appalachians. It serves St. Louis, Louisville, Lexington, Charleston WV, and the Hampton Roads metro at the Atlantic Ocean.
For freight, I-64 is the principal east-west corridor through the central Appalachians and the only interstate that connects St. Louis directly to the Mid-Atlantic ports without going north of the Ohio River. Truck volumes are heavy through Louisville (where I-64 meets I-65 and I-71), Lexington, and Charleston, WV.
Geographically I-64 is mostly rolling, with the only major climbs through the West Virginia Appalachians where the route crosses the Allegheny Front at Sandstone Mountain (3,300 ft) and threads the Sewell Mountain area near Beckley. The Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel at the eastern terminus is a major chokepoint and one of the few US interstate crossings that includes both bridge and tunnel sections. The four-lane 'gap' segment of I-64 between Richmond and Hampton Roads is being widened by VDOT, which calls congestion there notorious on one of Virginia's most important thoroughfares (VDOT).

Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel, VA (MM 263-272)
The HRBT is a 3.5-mile combined bridge-and-tunnel crossing of Hampton Roads and one of the region's most congested corridors (Hampton Roads Transportation Planning Organization). It carries I-64 with no comparable alternate route, so an incident in the tunnel can stop traffic for miles in both directions. A long-running expansion project will eventually add lanes. Until then, plan around peaks, especially in summer tourist season.
Sandstone Mountain, WV (MM 145-160)
I-64 crosses Sandstone Mountain at about 3,300 ft on a sustained 6% grade. WVDOT closes the segment occasionally in winter for snow and ice. Runaway-truck ramps line both descents. Use them.
West Virginia Turnpike, WV (MM 47-124)
I-64 / I-77 are concurrent across the WV Turnpike between Charleston and Beckley. Tolled, with HAZMAT routing requirements that change seasonally. Mountainous terrain with frequent fog and ice events.
Louisville Ohio River bridges (MM 120 KY - 0 IN, west)
I-64 crosses the Ohio River at Louisville on the Sherman Minton Bridge (toll-free), separate from the tolled RiverLink bridges that carry I-65. Sherman Minton has had chronic structural concerns and emergency closures in recent years.
Richmond I-95 / I-64 stack (MM 200)
I-64 and I-95 are concurrent for about 5 miles through downtown Richmond. The shared segment is heavily congested and has tight curves. VDOT publishes real-time alerts; consider I-295 bypass for through-truck routing.
