Commute from Prosper to Addison/Galleria area (Dallas, Spring: 2015, house)

[Bella2015]

Does anyone know how the commute would be from Prosper (toll/380) going to North Dallas/ Addison. I have flexible scheduling and can do 7-4 or 9-6 if that helps... Any insight?

Rush hour will be pretty long 15-30 mins maybe but should not take that long without rush hour.

Wha?? It's about a 22 mile drive from 380 to Beltline, all on the Tollroad, not counting any drive time from home to the Tollroad or Tollroad to office. Not sure how you'd drive that distance in heavy traffic - OR EVER- in 15 minutes....it would require averaging 90mph all the way....

Google maps is showing 25 minutes at 10:25pm fwiw. I'd guess 35-40 minutes minimum AM and 45-60 minutes PM.

I drive from Spring Creek & Ohio to Quorum & DNT.

I don't take DNT, I take Ohio down instead and it takes me around 30 minutes when I leave by 7:15. When school is in session, closer to 45 mins. Home is usually closer to 45 minutes when leaving around 4:30-4:45

I have a few colleagues that do the same drive from Prosper/Frisco. Takes them about an hour to 1 hr 15 min on average each way on a similar 9-6 schedule.

I can't comment on morning route but I drove a friend's mom from Parkland in Dallas to her house in prosper around 4 pm on a Tuesday. It took me more than an hour.

That's a lot further than galleria.

7-4 would work fine. It will take you 30 minutes to get to Addison.

I've made this trip several times during rush hour and non-rush hour. It's not the best but it's not too bad.

Traffic moves well until close to 7. You're worst part will be South of 121 (you should move well through Frisco)

To get to work at 7am, I would give yourself 30 minutes From entering the DNT @ 380 to your job plus however long it takes for you to get to the DNT from where you live in Prosper.

Going home, I would add 15-20 mins to whatever your morning commute is. (Congested getting out of Addison/North Dallas and the Tollway always backs up where it ends at 380).

Yeah I guess that is right I mean I usually people go about 10 miles above the speed limit but yeah I guess you are right about the time since they started construction on the tollway.
