Are you sure the blocks are intentional targeted
against Tor and don't have other reasons (some overly
aggressive heuristic to block worms for example)?

If your ISP is intentionally blocking Tor and the contract
allows it, I assume the most effective bypass will be
to switch ISPs. Unless your ISP has a monopoly I don't
see a reason to pay for its censorship.

If you can't or don't want to switch ISP you could
rent a server with uncensored net access and use
it as proxy.

There are different example configurations in the Tor FAQ.
