I’m taking a road trip to Montreal this summer and I want to make sure that I don’t get stuck in a bunch of traffic. What’s the best route to Montreal from Boston?

If you want the fastest driving route from
Boston
to Montreal, your best bet is to take I-89 N to get to Canada. Then, transfer to Autoroute 35 N and take this route until you reach Autoroute 10 N, which will take you the rest of the way to Montreal.
However, these roads can see some heavy traffic, particularly during busy times of the day. If you want to avoid the worst of this traffic while staying on the fastest route, try these tips:
  • Use a driving app, like Apple Maps or Google Maps, to make sure you stay on the fastest route.
  • Check for blockages periodically, including things like construction zones or rush hour traffic.
  • Drive during less busy times, like the middle of the day or even the middle of the night.
  • Steer clear of highly populated cities when possible.
  • Take breaks regularly so you can check on the road ahead, plan for alternate routes when necessary, and rest your body and mind.
When you go on a big road trip, it’s also really important to have a good insurance policy in place. With the
