Summary
Traffic chaos is guaranteed this Fourth of July weekend as MassDOT warns of gridlock across the Commonwealth, fueled by America 250 celebrations. Friday’s afternoon and evening rush will be brutal, with Cape Cod traffic spiking Saturday and Sunday’s return trip equally packed. The MBTA’s rolling schedule changes—more trains, extended bus service, and free rides after 8:30 PM—could ease the strain, while Logan Airport braces for crowds. Avoid fireworks on planes and use Mass511 for real-time updates. Plan ahead, or risk being stuck.
