Mornings load the I-264 commute from Norfolk toward the Town Center high-rises and the office core; evenings and weekends pack the Oceanfront, the Atlantic Avenue hotels and the ViBe Creative District galleries; summer fills the Boardwalk for the Neptune Festival and concerts. The Tide light rail runs the Norfolk spine and HRT buses feed the resort strip. Buy the I-264 commute and the Oceanfront season peak.
