Memorial Drive and Storrow Drive both have low bridges that frequently snag trucks (the worst is 10'). So it appears that the best routes for a truck to the Hyatt Regency Boston/Cambridge hotel from the Interstates to the Hyatt's loading dock on Vassar St are the following. Both were chosen, because of avoiding low bridges, they are also reversible.
From West (I-90) or South (I-93) of Boston:
- Take Mass Pike to Exit 131
- Head east on Cambridge St toward Cambridge (0.1 mi)
- Cross the river
- Continue onto River St (0.7 mi)
- Turn right onto Massachusetts Ave (0.6 mi, immediately after the train tracks)
- Turn right onto Vassar St (0.7 mi)
- Turn left immediately after the Hyatt's parking garage

From North of Boston, via I-93:
- Take exit 18 for MA-3 N toward "MA-28/Leverett Cir/Cambridge/Storrow Dr" (1.55 mi)
- Stay in the right lane (it's a long off ramp).
- Still on the off ramp, take the right fork toward "State Hwy 28 N/Leverett Cir" (636 ft)
- At the traffic light light turn left onto Nashua St (220 ft)
- Turn right onto Charles River Dam Rd (0.307 mi)
- Turn left at the traffic light onto Commercial Ave/Edwin H Land Blvd (0.370 mi)
- Turn right at the second traffic light onto Binney St (0.554 mi)
- Continue onto Galileo Galilei Way (0.288 mi) (the street curves, and changes names twice, but you don't turn onto another street)
- Go straight through the second traffic light and continue onto Vassar St (1.02 mi)
- Turn left after the Hyatt parking garage for the loading dock.
