Hitting Route 1 at 11:15 AM- Too Late?

[BigMike]

I will be at the game tomorrow, have to pick up two clients at Westwood 128 Station at 11 - I know Rte 1 will be backed and jacked around11AM. Any side road advice? Thanks.....

If you're not looking to tailgate I think you'll be fine (in terms of not missing kickoff).

 

[BigMike]

Thanks - Im sure it will take some time but Im thankful to be going.

Park a mile or so from the stadium. Its good exercise before the game and after. Plus, you'll shave 2-3 hours off waiting in traffic to get out of the area post-game. In and Out i s how I roll.

Gonna be close if you have to walk to the upper deck. If you have better seats you should be fine for kick-off, but you won't have time to lolly gag.

I agree with that. I normally try to park at the End Zone Motel a mile south of the stadium. If you're coming from the north I'm not sure what there is up there.

yeah - Fidelity Club - those Red Seats (company tix) (here comes the abuse) We have to wait for these folks to arrive on the Acela which pulls in to Westwood at 11. Would have preferred them to arrive at 10 - I know Route 1 is going to be jammed. I dont want to miss the game!

Well, rent a helicopter then. It sounds like you could hire one.

How about picking the patriots special train at the same westwood station at around 11 and going to foxboro?

Then don't worry about parking a mile away. You get to have parking up next to the Stadium (look for the lot entrance coming south, it's teh first or second one), and getting out will be a cinch. You get a special road that dumps you a mile or so up Rte 1 past the lot clustermess.

Only if you have a parking pass for those lots. Not all premium seats have them.

Company seats - not mine!

thanks for the info here.

I sat in the club house for the Cleveland game last year, the free food was great, but I felt kinda disconnected from the actual game. Since you'll have access to the premier parking, you bypass some of the wait and should be OK.

thanks - at least we dont have Hanna to deal with today.
