That new bridge they just built

Do you know the name of the bridge?
Google maps keeps trying to direct me through the tunnel

If you're on the road now, traffic at the tunnel shouldn't be an issue.

Not leaving until tomorrow morning. Will hit Mobile about 11 a.m. So I'm sure it's a guaranteed clusterfrick

Coming back we took some back roads and found a way around, and ended up coming across the new bridge. I couldn't tell you how to do it again though, all I know is it knocked of a huge chunk of time.
Hwy 90 is the bridge we came across

I have driven from BR to Destin several times per year for over 25 years and only had a clusterfrick at the Mobile tunnel once.

Stay in the far right lanes after the I65 interchange.
Dive off into one of the left two lanes when you can see the tunnel.

How the frick do people still not know about this...

Michigan Ave to Government St.
On the way back, jump off at that exit right before the long bridge, head straight, and then jump back on right before the tunnel.

Exit Water Street then take Causeway and you will avoid both tunnels.

I-10E to I-65N take Government street (exit 1) and turn right. This will take you downtown and directly into the Bankhead Tunnel. Then take the causeway across the Delta to Daphne and resume travels on I-10E

Is the Michigan Avenue ramp still open?
Truthfully the route I gave isn't the quickest option but it's the easiest. Canal Street using the exit only lane then swinging by the Civic Center will be the quickest.

I-65 North to I-165 South, cross the Hwy 90 bridge. Follow the signs as soon as you turn north on 65. It will cross, go under the interstate, past the battleship, and back up on the interstate. Follow the same path back. 16 miles and change out of the way, and if its backed up, about 45 minutes faster.

It is a family tradition to hold your breath while going through the tunnel. I'm 47 and still do it.

Hazardous cargo exit. Just follow the road.
