I feel I must vent on the propane exclusion through the 95 tunnels. All propane being transported in an RV is in a DOT certified high pressure container.
If the concern is flammables in the tunnel, then what about the 1000's of gallons of liquid fuel in each vehicle each instant going through the tunnel?
This is the only tunnel that I know of in the USA that has this restriction. Some may not allow placarded loads of bulk Hazardous Materials, but that's rare.
A month or so ago I weighed the options of going around the 695W or the Francis Scott Key Bridge. Rather than trudge the 40 or so miles on 695W we did the Key Bridge. FWIW, don't go this route if you have more than 2 axles. My truck and TT (4 axles TTL) cost $12. What a racket.
As I've said before, I will no longer travel 95 anywhere North of DC in an RV.
