In contrast, US 1 in Maine is much closer to the coast than I-95, which runs farther inland than US 1. The route connects most of the major cities of the East Coast—including Miami, Jacksonville, Raleigh, Richmond, Washington DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York City, and Boston passing from the Southeastern US to New England.
