Best commute to New Bedford (Providence, East Providence: condo, house, construction)

[Sheina Maydela]

If I want to live in Providence, but would prefer a house to a condo, which area is best for the easiest commute to Dartmouth/New Bedford area?

[Hollytree]

The East Side of Providence. Or in the vicinity, the city of East Providence. You want easy access to 195E.

i thought east side dind't really have easy access to get ON 195.

I get on it all the time- Gano St area or Waterman bridge. Takes 15-20 min to FR and 25 min to NB

[Sheina Maydela]

i thought there was an exit to get off 195 there, but not to get on, and you had to make a big circle. Am I missing something?

[Hollytree]

There's an entrance at Corliss Landing near the Point St bridge or you can go over the Waterman St bridge into EP.

Hi Holly Tree,
Sounds like the commute is pretty easy. Just wanted to make sure I am not missing anything with traffic, construction, etc...
I am considering a job in New Bedford.
Thanks
