Well, good luck with that. The Conyers 7:00 departure, which travels over less road that is also less congested than Cobb County, has arrived close to the 7:40 Five Points time exactly twice, one two Fridays ago, and today, Columbus day. Both times were early. The earliest it's been otherwise has been 5 minutes late, and that's on a good day. The afternoon departures from Atlanta have been consistently 15-20 minutes late on average. Today with no traffic on the highways, it was still 10 minutes late. Maybe CCT does things better, but I personally wouldn't count on that. Ensure you leave plenty of time either direction for your commitments.

Yes, and it's useless, they rarely update it.

Look at Smyrna, the Smyrnings portion closer to Atlanta. I used to commute to Peachtree Center. 30 min at worst if you take surface roads (Marietta Blvd)

So you guys think I can't make it to Peachtree from Kennesaw in less than hour? What is a realistic expectation? Is the commute from Conyers to Peachtree on Xpress faster than from Kennesaw?

You can probably do it in an hour, but don't expect anything less unless you can do something other than 8-5.

About an hour.

A little bit, but only due to the slightly shorter distance, and slightly less congested corridor.
