    Why not just 695 around the north side of town? I think I was routed that way once but I'm pretty sure I threw it back to just run around the loop instead.

    You’d be time ahead on 695

    Maryland is allowing us to run Fort Mchenry tunnel up to 110k, 11 wide and 14-6 tall. Could look into that as well.

    You don't want to go through Baltimore City with an oversized load!

    Yea, I didn’t approve it. I sent it for review. I think they tried to give me that route about 6 years ago too…. Something going on on 695?

    Ok, I’d rather do that than 695

    MD doesn't put specific routing on your permit?(I've never hauled OD in MD, but all the trip permits I have ever had elsewhere pretty much gave you turn by turn routing that you had to follow)

    Your permit will have the route on it.

    You would have to be nuts to go through downtown even with a legal load.
