Driving to Buffalo - How long ?
Hi all:
I'm from South America and I'll be in Cleveland next weekend.
I have to go to Buffalo , to the HSBC Arena , to assist to a Rock Concert on September 8 (Saturday).
The concert starts at 8 PM.
How long does it take the trip ? According to Mapquest is a 3 and a half hour trip , is this right ?
Is it an easy trip ? or on Saturday is a mess ?
I would like to consider some extra time because I'm new around there and the only reason for this trip is to see my favorite rock band.
And what about a driving trip to Pittsburgh .. how long usually take ? 2 hours ?
Any help or advise will be welcome.
Thanks.
Regards.
Carlos.

It's all highway, so timing should be accurate to Buffalo and Pittsburgh.

When I went up to Buffalo and Niagara Falls it took us about 4 hours but we stopped two times so yeah im guessing its about 3 and a half hours and the traffic is never that bad so its pretty accurate. Pittsburgh is about 2 and a half hours.

You can probably get to Pittsburgh in like 2 hours.I remember when I went to Johnstown,PA which is a little bit farther than Pittsburgh,its took 2 1/2 hours from Cleveland to Johnstown,with a stop to get something to eat.
