- We don't go on 93. Straight through Boston. Wrong bridge. We don't go over Mystic bridge we go over Zakim Bridge.

I'm confused. The last time I went over the Zakim from the north, it was I-93 which goes directly into the new tunnel where propane is not allowed. There are no exits between the bridge and the tunnel. How do you cross on the Zakim and avoid the tunnel?- I'm confused.

X2. The Zakim goes directly through the tunnel. No way around it unless you take the surface roads, which is just plain crazy. Coming down Rt. 1 from Revere takes you over the Tobin bridge. Wait, that's now the Mystic Bridge as stated. Question is does it merge back onto 93 after the tunnel? Crowe wrote:

US1 joins I-93 just north of the Zakim bridge and is concurrent with it over the bridge and through the tunnel. It eventually continues on I-95 a bit (after the southern junction of I-93 and I-95) and then goes south as its own road.
I am likewise confused about what route is being described.- US1 joins I-93 just north of the Zakim bridge and is concurrent with it over the bridge and through the tunnel. It eventually continues on I-95 a bit (after the southern junction of I-93 and I-95) and then goes south as its own road.
Thanks. I come straight down 93 all the way so I don't pay much attention to where the other roads feed on/off. jplante4 wrote:
Take I-95/Route 128. Driving through Boston is such a pain. Just do it between the hours of 10 and 2.
Ditto on route and times
