    I will be going 90 east. Then I have to drop down to 71 south. Just to the right of my finger you see where they are connected by a in between high way. Can some one identity this highway, I can't. I'm sure there will be signs. But its still confusing. 16348548730981704364851.jpg

    Where are you coming from on 90? If you’re on the toll road it’s best to stay on 80 after 80/90 split and hit 71 south that way. If you’re coming across state route 2 to avoid tolls it’s quicker to stay on 90 to 77 south to 271 south to 71. Getting off 90 on the west side has LOTS of no truck roads and low bridges between 90/480

    What I think you are pointing at is still 71. 71 dead ends into 90

    If coming across 2 and tolls aren’t an issue you can drop off 2 in Amherst area to pick up 80, puts you on at 140 yard line on toll road, that’s more direct than staying on 90, state route 58 is the connection

    I’d go a little further to 176 south to 71. Might add 10-15 miles. Beats trying to maneuver city streets and red lights.

    That’d work as well. The West Side sucks for trucks

    I will only be on 90 for about 10 mins. I'm picking up off of exit 167. It's a hazmat load so I know I gotta pay attention. I'm about to crack open the map again and look at the 176 option.
    Tolls are not a big deal right now. But in this part of Cleveland. It seems like every other road is a no truck road or no hazmat rd. We all know what happened last time I ignored the signs.
     
    Bean Jr. and Rideandrepair Thank this.

    No,
    176 . It’s right before 77, goes south. Great little short cut. I use it going East running 2-90-176-480-422- 5/82 -7-62-80 best way to avoid tolls from Toledo to Hubbard Ohio. Brings you to Truck world and flying J
