    Agree with @slim shady. 6am for sure. If you don't mind paying the toll then I-294 is your friend.

    90 is a toll road
    I'd take 294 to 88w to 39 n

    294 to 88w to 39 n is about 10 miles longer
    But no construction.

    Those speed limits are more of a suggestion. "OK GUYS LETS TRY 45 MPH NOW....HMM NOPE BACK TO 80+"
