Looking at your map - You should meet us in NJ about halfway point - about 276 miles

from Boston and another 250 to somerset !! - would be a good place to strech and nature break - then continue - we plan on making one stop about 1/2 along the way.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/213126.phtml">info on NJ meeting place</a></li></ul>

I just saw your map you posted...

Anyone local to the Tapp know when the construction around 287 is supposed to get really bad? I hear it is going to pick up. It will depend when you are crossing the bridge of course, but it may be faster to take 84 across the Newburgh Bridge.

I have no idea which is faster... this should be worth thinking about though. $0.02

Good point - I was up there last week, and LOTS of signs warning about upcoming closures !

Think they were starting this week, sure they will still be going on in April.. Probably during non rush hours, which is when you guys will be there... Should plan a diff route..

The current plan is for 33 MONTHS (not weeks) of construction... again if I remember correctly

But this is coming from someone in North Carolina, so why should I know (or care) about the details of this construction project. ;-)

I just ran some numbers...

I just looked at taking 84 West to 81 South to 76 West. I came up with 8:53 for the drive (543 miles).

When I throw the Tapp in the equation, the drive is 540 miles long and estimated at taking 9:14.

I set my mapping program to 70 for Interstate & Toll roads, 65 for non-interstate divided highways and 50 for state routes. The program has proved to be pretty accurate when you don't encounter traffic with this speeds set. I typically set the cruise to 70-75mph but my speed ends up varying between 65 & 80.

I hope this helps in the planning!
