    I have an appointment in McLean (Jones Branch Dr.) for 8:45 on a Wednesday morning. If I'm willing to use the Greenway & toll road, does anyone have an estimate of how long it will take to get there? I'm guessing there'll still be AM traffic.

    Thanks!

    Give yourself at least an hour, If it were me I would leave no later than 0730. This gives you time to park and walk into building. I used to drive from Broadlands to McLean daily and it usually took me at least an hour - possibly more if there were any accidents so make sure you check the traffic in the morning.

    I second that. I am on Jones Branch as well and an hour is good. Or come earlier, stop at a coffee place and relax after the crappy commute.

    I used to work in Vienna. It would take me between 25 minutes and two hours to get to work!

    What they said. I used to work in that area and it could take up to two hours to get there or you could get there in 30 minutes!

    I guess I lucked out. It took me 35 minutes. But I had given myself 1.5 hours and brought a book!

    Thanks for the feedback!
