How many miles???
 

I will be leaving from Bangor Maine and travelling to Kittery. I would like to stop off at Freeport and just wondering how many miles or how long it would be to go off the Highway into Freeport. Thank You

assuming you are headed to downtown Freeport and the LL Bean outlet, it is perhaps one mile from I 295. Traffic might make it seem longer.

That is where
 

I am headed. Thanks so much for the information.

Done that drive many, many times. Watch for the Maine State police on 295. Seriously. Take 95 to 295. Freeport is on 295 (exit 22 for you) and when you exit, you're practically in LL Bean's backyard.

When you leave Freeport and get back on 295, take Exit 11 to Route 95/the Maine Turnpike.

Freeport is about 2-2 1/4 hours from Bangor. Freeport is about 1 1/2 hours from Kittery.

Small correction. If you were take Exit 11 (Exit 10 is for Bucknam Road, Falmouth), you could get on the Maine Turnpike southbound and it would not cost any different than taking 295 to the end ($1 for a passenger car either option). And in fact, there is a TON of construction happening on 295 through the Portland area right now, so I would suggest you take Exit 11 rather than drive through downtown Portland unless you have a stop to make in Portland or South Portland.

Now for one of the best kept secrets in Maine... On the way back North, you will want to get back onto 295, but DO NOT take exit 44 (they charge a toll at exit 44)... take exit 45 instead which puts you on another little divided highway. Don't take the first exit there (for the Mall area), but take the second exit, and voila, you've gotten back on 295 without paying a toll. Only takes about an additional minute, but you've saved a buck!

I remember some 295 construction but didn't realize that it was causing driving hassles. Also thought it was exit 10 that led drivers back to the Maine Turnpike. I'll rewrite my second paragraph.

This "secret" I know! Exit 45 puts you on the "connector" that allows you to get right to 295 without paying a toll. Learned about that from taking the Concord bus from BOS.
