I-695 in Washington DC and in Baltimore are separate routes that do not connect. I-95 and Maryland Route 295 (which becomes DC 295 and then I-295) are both major ways to get between the two. US 1 also connects the two, but it is not a highway, and there are many traffic lights along the way.

Answer: George Washington Bridge
