Maryland Travelers Brace for Heat and Traffic | Annapolis News
Description
Maryland’s Fourth of July travel rush is on the move—with over 1.5 million residents hitting the road, sky, or rails. Ninety percent are driving, a trend mirrored nationally as 72.2 million Americans plan trips. While air travel is slightly down from last year, bus and train ridership is up 4.2%. Gas prices hover around $3.74 a gallon, and AAA warns: check your car’s tires, coolant, battery, and AC before you go—last year they helped over 11,000 Marylanders with breakdowns. Avoid the worst traffic by leaving early Thursday, July 2nd, or plan to travel earlier in the week. If you’re stuck driving on the 4th, aim for after 3 PM. With extreme heat expected, safety and preparation are key—especially if you’re celebrating with a drink.
