They finished her the bridge work in Rhode Island, no more truck weight/axle restriction. As Ol'Hand described the other (shorter,faster, less likely for congestion) route to take I'll let it ride.joseph1135 Thanks this. -
As far as the comment I made in the other thread about staying out from underneath elevated subway structures, there are of course exceptions that are safe for 13'6" and that is a well worn path that everybody knows is okay to use, but generally speaking those are the types of things you want to stay out from underneath of if you ever find yourself out in random-corner-of-NYC-land trying to get somewhere. -
So I guess you'd use exit 51 off the Bruckner (if you were coming south on 95 instead of north.) There is no direct interchange to 895 south off southbound 95
