Unless your workday begins at 10 am...good luck & leave at least 1.5 hrs early!

Where is your office, 395 might be easier than trying to cross the bridge.

The biggest problem with your route is I-95. Unless you have non-peak working hours your commute will be a nightmare. You may want to look into Omnilink or VRE.

You actually will be taking I-95N to get to the Beltway. You are in for a commuting nightmare. Couldn't pay me any amount do that. I used to live near the Springfield Metro. That commute sucked and it's just the halfway point for your commute.

Nah, I did my commute just from Vienna to DC on a motorcycle and it still SUCKED. Plenty of times I walked my bike that entire route in first gear.
