How Long Does It Take You To Get To Work?

**chris_d** · January 22nd, 2016 07:56 AM

Gabi trabaho namin ni misis at parehong sa Makati work namin.

Going to work around 8pm, 20-45 minutes Bicutan - Makati
Going home 20-25 minutes Makati - Bicutan

Skyway both ways since lugi sa oras pag service road ang daan.

15 to 20 mins for a 3.8 kms. distance.

Nice thread.

Me 2 stops since hatid si wifey and sundo.

Manila to Ortigas CBD (wifey) then Pasig (Me)

Morning:

Daily we left the house around 5:30am 40 minutes (relaxed driving ito) nasa office na ako.

Route: C3, Sgt Rivera, Araneta Ave, N Domingo, Addition Hills, Wilson, Ortigas Ave (grabe naman kasi dyan sa Xavier, pag ganyan kaaga traffic sa ortigas ave dahil sa mga naghahatid)

Evening

Swerte na makuha ko ng 1 hour pauwi, minsan inabot ako 2.5hrs bago nakauwi (aggressive driving na ako going home)

Route:

I prefer EDSA going home, traffic yet moving. After Cubao maginhawa na then build up ulit sa Munoz.
Grabe kasi yang construction ng Skyway sa araneta pag gabi, chaotic sa intersection ng A Bonifacio - Sgt Rivera (Araneta ave). Truck route pa yan ng mga papuntang port area.

I envy those who live nearby their workplace

I thank my Mom so much for insisting that I work close to home. She said Makati or BGC only. Always listen to your parents hehe

Dati 1 minute (around 200m to office). Ngayon 3 minutes na kasi lumipat ng bahay hehehe. Nale-late pa ko nyan

Id be super duper kadooooper happy if my commute was 1 hr one way (consistently not tsamba). With that i'd feel like I won the lotto .

Hence I'm always interested In traffic solutions .

7am ang alis mga 10mins travel time, kung 730am mga 15-20mins.

Kaya I can't imagine working in MM. Many offers came pero, no thanks.

Interesting to know other's routes and travel times. I wonder if the government or any other planning agency has made this kind of survey to determine the heavily travelled corridors in the metro.

My daily grind:

AM: 6:30-7:30 Pasig to Makati (12km) via C5-BGC(32nd)-EDSA-Arnaiz
- On a bad day (e.g. stalled truck on C5 Kalayaan bridge), +1 or 2 hours

- Went to work during the APEC holidays, total travel time 15 minutes Pasig to Makati!

PM: 5:30-7:00 Makati to Pasig (18km) via SLEX-East Service Road-C5-Taguig/Pateros
- Fridays +0.5 to 1 hr
- I've run out of patience sa traffic and gitgitan sa C5-Kalayaan area that's why I prefer to take the longer route sa SLEX-East Service Road.

Last month nasa zamboanga city ako, pinasyal kami dun nung regional officemate ko.

pansin ko nag iba ang mood niya while driving, I asked what's the problem.

Traffic daw! langya kaming lahat ng sakay nagulat at napakamot ulo

traffic is moving (slowly), heavy na daw ang traffic!

Iba definition nila ng traffic dun, nakupo what more pag asa Metro Manila kayo.

Kaya ayun never daw nila papangarapin mag work dito sa Metro.
