On summer weekends, outbound traffic over the Sagamore and Bourne bridges is lightest early — before about 8am — or later in the evening after 7pm. Friday afternoons and Saturday mornings are the busiest. The live grid above shows typical drive times by hour so you can pick your window.
It depends on your route. The Sagamore Bridge feeds the Mid and Lower Cape via Route 6 and tends to back up most on summer weekends, while the Bourne Bridge serves the Upper Cape and the island ferry terminals. You can compare live drive times for both above.
Off-peak, Boston to the Sagamore Bridge is roughly 1 to 1.5 hours. Summer weekend backups can add 30 to 60 minutes or more at the bridge — the live readings above show the current and typical drive time for your day and hour.
The heaviest outbound traffic is usually Friday afternoon into the evening and Saturday morning in July and August. The worst return traffic is Sunday afternoon. Holiday weekends are heavier still in both directions.
