Under 30 minutes to the new headquarters? Maybe half the time. The screwed up rush hour past an hour.

I have spent 30 minutes getting down the hill a couple of times in the last year. And I have spent well over a half hour getting from one exit on 15 to the next.

It can be very difficult to get from GVR to downtown...and the options go south real fast when it gets bad.

It takes me 20 mins to get to Palace Station from here when I go out to 15 on the new road behind the M.

From here to get to GVR, I take Eastern to Coronado to 215 to Green Valley.

Thank you, thank you - this is the sort of info that's hard to get from maps and stats alone!

Look into the magnet schools for your kids. It's how you get a first class education in the public schools here.

Good luck and welcome.

I can get from my home at 95 and Craig to my cardiologist at Horizon Ridge at Carnegie in under a half hour if all works. I allow an hour. I make it in under half an hour over half the time. But I get there on time or close to it maybe 25% of the time..

The Anthem area is fine if it works but actually has very few alternatives if it does not. The NW to downtown has a half dozen alternatives.

YOu do need to pay attention. I saw 15 minutes on the 95 board for the run to Flamingo and stayed on 95. Thought at the time that could not be right - but it was worse than that. If I had run to the streets it would have cost me 5 or 10 minutes max. But staying on ended up costing more like 25.
