About this drive

On weekdays the 52-mile drive from Massapequa to Newark (via Cross Island Pkwy North and I-95 West and Laurelton Pkwy North) usually takes as little as 88 minutes and up to 230 minutes, when leaving around 2 pm on Fridays. Midday (11 am to 2 pm) it takes about 181 minutes. On weekends it is slowest around 1:30 pm on Saturdays (205 minutes).

About 31 miles of it is freeway, where times follow typical and live traffic from our sensors, and about 22 miles surface streets (37 to 80 minutes on weekdays), estimated from how jammed the freeways around them are at that time. Drive times are measured from central Massapequa to central Newark along the route on the map. Starting or ending elsewhere in a big city can add or save several minutes.

Simulated from typical freeway speeds at each point of the drive for the time you would reach it, from every 5-minute reading we have recorded. We don't have sensors on surface streets yet, so the time on them is estimated from how congested the freeways around each end of the drive are at that time, in both directions: streets jam when the freeways do.
