Commuting Time Questions
Could anyone comment on commute times from;

Buffalo Grove/Deerfield/Northbrook to Downers Grove in the AM and back in the PM? I know it will depend in part on the time it would take to get to the tri state, which is open at this stage.

Thanks - runningshoes

My guess would be about an hour.

With no traffic it should be about 40 mins.

You also have to figure in tolls on this route.

If you have an I-Pass, it's faster (and cheaper).

Also note that commute times may change starting as early as 2010 if they really go w/ the carpool lanes.

If it's raining or snowing add considerable time to your estimate.
