Best route around Boston?
Driving from Bar Harbor to Scituate. Would like to avoid stop and go traffic.

I495 is the quickest
Not always. It adds quite a bit of mileage to the trip since Scituate is on the coast and 495 bows towards the west. There's major construction on 495 right now, which can slow the trip considerably. Many areas along the highway, although not visible, are very built up. Neither highway is fun at rush hour but your best bet is to stick to 95 as it's a much straighter shot.
