Just stay in the right lane?

My advice for anyone driving pleasant st coming in from 295:

-stay in the right lane coming off of 295 unless you have to go to one of the businesses on the left hand side of Pleasant street when you get off the interstate. If you have to go to one of those businesses (before the river road intersection) then you should start in the left lane.

-after river road, get into the left lane if you are going route 1 or stay in the right lane if you are gonna go to Maine street.

If you stay in the left hand lane from start to finish it will take you forever with people turning left all the time.

If you’re coming off 295 and heading up route 1 north, I think it’s better to just use the Topsham exit

I always found that longer but for some people it works for them.

Distance yes. Time wise, all depends on the time of day. Topsham connector handles more traffic more easily. So with traffic it’s a toss up. Early morning/late night, pleasant street is quicker every time.

To each their own, this has been a problem since I worked in Brunswick 2009-20015
