Fred2 367 Posted June 19, 2013 I will be heading from JFK airport to Cape May on Sunday morning. Which is the fastest way to get there? Parkway all the way down, or take the NJTP down toward the bottom , and then cut across South Jersey? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NYMetsFan86 9 Posted June 19, 2013 Turnpike to Parkway south. Straight shot from there born and raised on the jersey shore Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJSlick 0 Posted June 19, 2013 I will be heading from JFK airport to Cape May on Sunday morning. Which is the fastest way to get there? Parkway all the way down, or take the NJTP down toward the bottom , and then cut across South Jersey? Stay away from the NJTP. Its full of construction and Troopers. Take 287 to 440 south to the parkway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GRIZ 3,369 Posted June 19, 2013 JFK to the Verrazano cross Staten Island to Outerbridge to GSP. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fred2 367 Posted June 19, 2013 How will the traffic be on the GSP It is supposed to be a warm, sunny weekend, and I do not want to get stuck in 100 miles of Bumper to bumper traffic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NYMetsFan86 9 Posted June 19, 2013 traffic cannot be avoided at busy travel times. Day itself and time you leave play a big part of that. if you can, leave at an awkward time of day. By that i mean late night or super duper early am. if you drive here friday afternoon and leave sunday afternoon, traffic is inevidable Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZED 54 1 Posted June 19, 2013 Sunday morning the traffic will mostly be northbound. Friday GSP South backups can start as far north as exit 123/Rt 9. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FLHX 1 Posted June 19, 2013 Sunday morning usually not that bad, I say usually because you just never know. Sunday morning depending on what time early Sun will be good as it gets later the traffic builds!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thug the bunny 0 Posted June 19, 2013 Verazzano to GSP all the way down. Sun all the shoobs and bennies will be headed N, so you will be going counter to most of the crowds. Enjoy Cape May! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M1152 713 Posted June 19, 2013 It's a crap shoot either way, I'd probably go Parkway Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fred2 367 Posted June 19, 2013 I will be leaving JFK at about 8:00 AM, after picking up these folk from the airport. So I figure 8:30 am or so at the "decision point" by the Raritan bridge area. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueLineFish 615 Posted June 19, 2013 There is no fast way. Traffic everywhere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Malsua 1,422 Posted June 19, 2013 The traffic jams have improved somewhat with the added lanes on the GSP. I'd definitely give the GSP a go. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigBlueQ 7 Posted June 19, 2013 Fishing charter. Make a day of it. If not, then the GSP. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave_D 0 Posted June 19, 2013 If you have a iPhone I recommend the Waze app. It's social GPS so it'll give you a pretty decent idea of which route is best based on how many other people are sitting in traffic along the route. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

plode 0 Posted June 22, 2013 I drove up to milepost 124 today(buying a gun from another NJGF member), and back home with no real serious traffic. Took about 1.75 hours up, 1.5 hours home. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael2013 56 Posted June 22, 2013 I will be leaving JFK at about 8:00 AM, after picking up these folk from the airport. So I figure 8:30 am or so at the "decision point" by the Raritan bridge area. I often go to the shore from Bergen county on Sundays at about 7 am. There is no traffic to talk about on GSP. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
