How long is the drive from DC to Baltimore? (Washington: vs., map)

[itinérant]

Hello:

I am driving from Silver Spring to Baltimore. I will be getting on the Beltway from Georgia Avenue. I have to be there at 8:15. How long will the drive take me? Thanks.

John

P.S. I need a reply ASAP

If you are driving on a Sunday morning, I would allow just under an hour to be safe. If you are driving on a weekday morning, I would allow about an hour and 20 minutes to be safe.

If you're going to the Inner Harbor in Baltimore on Sunday morning, then I agree with the previous poster. You should definitely be there in under an hour (45 minutes?). I've done it before.

I am going on MONDAY morning. Sorry if that was unclear.

With the traffic, I'd say give yourself an hour at least. Won't be too much better on the BW parkway neither.

Are you suggesting that there is a better route than I-95?

I usually take Baltimore-Washington Parkway vs. I-95, but then I'm usually cutting through the city (via NY Ave).

For example, Google map link.

Well, I wouldn't say the BW Parkway is better, just different
