[quote=Herodotus;34616484]There is road construction at Cumberland. Don't go that way.

Unless there is an accident, it generally takes about 3.5 hours to go from the Parkway, to the Beltway, for those who obey the speed limits, and don't make more than one quick stop. Any additional time will depend on where in Pittsburgh you are coming from, and where in the DC area you are going. Big difference between going from say, Moon, to Waldorf, as opposed to Monroeville to Gaithersburg.[/QUOTE

Ive learned to enter the metro area through the Maryland side of I 495 period. On a Friday afternoon its faster to complete the circle to the VA side instead of dealing with the rush hour nightmare.

How would you enter through VA? I guess you mean take 495 east toward Silver Spring instead of Bethesda?? Sometimes it varies so its worth checking traffic on google before deciding.
