I used to have to commute that way - glad I got a job closer to home now...

Anyways -

95 South All the way - not too bad, some traffic around College Park but 
after that it really clears out. The WW bridge backs up around the Oxon 
Hill exit and this is around 8:208:30 - if ya go eariler it might be better.

95 South to 295 South (via DC)
Its fast! IF there is no traffic jams at New York Ave, but after that it 
is all clear to the bridge (barring no accidents) 295 varies alot on how 
95 is and the time. Some days it is packed others only 10 minute delay if 
that at New York.


ALOT of this depends on where in Alexandria. Old Town? Or closer to 395? 
You could go 295 then 395 but ya get all the inbound DC city traffic SO 
go 295 to WW, 495 and then exit onto Route 1 or go up to 395.

Good Luck....
