Default Traffic Information Needed

I'm working in DC tomorrow on 23rd st. nw and I need to be there by 7:00am. I will be leaving from my cousin's house in woodbridge and was wondering how the traffic is on 95N around 6:00am? Any advice? Thanks!

Some people need to be in the door before 7:00am. Try agian.



To answer your question. The drive isn't really all that bad. Could you find someone to ride the HOV with?

As stated above the VRE would be the less stressfull way to work but doesn't always ensure you a ride home if needed to leave early or late.

If your going to drive from WB all the way to 23rd st. then try leaving about 1 hr and 15 mins early. Unless your parking in a garage for $15 all day, It will take about 10 minutes to find parking on the street and most of the parking is 2hr limit and you'll have to go out and move your car.

This time estimate doesn't compinsate for accidents and rubber necking. Just traffic congestion.

I hope this helps.
