I'd really appreciate any info on this (I need to make a decision by Monday)...

Will be moving back to the DC area, and already know I will be living in Rosslyn by the metro station. Offered a job in Reston on Wiehle, a mile off the Dulles toll road. Would have to be at work by 7:45 am, and can leave at 3:15 pm.

I'm trying to figure out how long the drive would be - some useful info at http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showt...=680714&page=2, but it was noted that a lot depend on what part of the rush hour you're driving in.

I was thus wondering if anyone can guess, based on my specific times above, how early I'd need to leave Rosslyn to be at work by 7:45, and how late I'd expect to get home if I can leave work at 3:15 pm?

Also, I understand that I-66 going west to the Dulles road can actually get bad in the reverse commute direction - would this be a problem at these times? Are there similar problems on the Dulles Toll Road or is it pretty open for the reverse commute?

Lastly, I read that one alternative to the 66 is to go north on the GWP, then southwest on 123 to the Dulles Road at Tysons (I heard that going via the Beltway is to be avoided at all costs, hence the use of the 123) - how would the traffic be on the GWP and 123 in the reverse commute direction in morning and afternoon?

Thanks for any info!
