One reason to drive through Hartford is that it is generally about an hour shorter than going straight up I-95 from New York to Boston. If you take I-287 East/I-87 South across the Tappan Zee Bridge, you can then take I-684 North to I-84 East, which passes through Hartford. (At the end of I-84, you take I-90 East, the Massachusetts Turnpike, to get to Boston.) I don't remember the connection from the GW Bridge (I-95 in New York) to I-684, but it can be done. You can also take the Hutchinson River Pkwy, which becomes the Wilbur Cross Pkwy in CT, up to Hartford, and pick up I-84 there. I never liked it because it's a very twisting road. I-684 is straight and fast. Good luck. Julian C. Lander jclander@mitre.org
