Terry Ann or Houstonians. Need opinions on directions

Emm and i will be coming in Friday morning from Shiner. so we are taking 90A all the way into Sugarland at least.  

The SHORTEST route would be to take 90A to hwy 6 and head down to Hitch**** or Sante Fe.  now i haven't been on 6 since we lived down there almost 20 years ago.  Is it all still stop and go?

My other option is toe hit the beltway and get to 45 at Ellington Field. I have done that the last time i was down there but that's been 6 years as well.  And it's further distance wise.

So what do you think is the best route?  We should be in the area by noon so traffic shouldn't be at it's worst.  Course it is always a challenge.

It's still stop in go on HWY 6 but not bad at all.  I live in Missouri City (east of Sugarland) and it takes me about 45 minutes to get to the beach from here around the time you should be coming in.

45 is still in the midst of road construction from NASA Rd 1 to around El Dorado but during the time of day you come through, that should be a problem either.

Ditto what Marti said.  Come on down 6 to 45 and you are almost at the Causeway into Galveston.  Construction on 45 up near Bay Area Blvd and Nasa 1 is messy right now.
