    Both my GPS and company route say 95 up, exit to Keith and then S Clinton.
    Is it likely that 95 is a circus at 6am?
    If so, is 895 a reasonable alternative? Boston to Broening to Keith?
    Also...is the cost the same on EZ pass as what they list on the website? Or do megas get any breaks?

    I'm not going up until morning. Cuz... Baltimore. Ya. Scary in the dark lol.
    I wasn't sure if there's any leverage from the megas or something. 30$ to cross 895. That's a bit rich for my blood

    Yes 95 N is easiest route. Not sure of restrictions on 895 but I'm pretty sure you can't be wider than 8ft. 95 N exit Keith Ave. Turn right follow down to Ruckert on RHS There is parking for about 10 or so trucks. Its safe there. I park there all the time
     
    Upinsmoke Thanks this.

    Their is a TA truck stop first or second ext when you come out of the tunnel going north. Pay to park $20 or fuel or restaurant or reserve parking. I think 895 no trucks allowed

    Don’t do 895. The Harbor Tunnel is restricted to 96” wide.

    95 north should still be somewhat bearable up until about 6:00. You may see a bit of congestion approaching exit 53... 395 into downtown. You’ll be looking for exit 56. Use the right bore through the Ft. McHenry tunnel and stay as far to the right as possible through the toll booth. Your exit is immediately after.

    Turn right at the end of the ramp. Keith Ave will become Clinton St as you go around a right hand curve about a 1/2 mile down.
