Cool. Really hoping to get a job in Cottage Grove or Eagan. I would like to not travel anymore.

Not that bad at that time

??? OK I'll try and take a picture to prove it.

As for alternate routes, yes there is but with all the turnsies and stop lights involved, might not be worth it or very repeatable time wise.

I suppose it's not the end of the world, but just understand it's not that fun so I would definately be chosing BP as my last option.

Ok so we are moving sooner than first thought. Can anyone that lives in woodbury tell me how traffic is going to say eagan or Brooklyn park in the morning. Time wise?

From Woodbury to Eagan is roughly 10-15 minutes. Traffic is pretty empty around that time also (10-6 or after 6pm). From Eagan to Woodbury, around 5-6pm is where it sometimes gets packed because at the 494-to-694, goes from 3 lanes to 2 lanes. As for BP to Woodbury (after work), it's pretty chaotic right. Halon is 110% correct on that one. I hate going that way.

I take 694 from white bear lake to eagan everyday. Besides the 694/494/94 intersection, it usually moves pretty easy.

Of course if you're starting at White Bear, it usually clears up right before you start getting to Maplewood. It's in Shoreview like I said (from about 35W to Rice St) where it sucks balls. It can take 20-30min to get through there at times after work.

Yep, that Hwy 10/Snelling/35W area is a bitch, what a horrible design. Build the stadium there and redesign it!

pretty far drive if you're going to take the jobs at the new luther dealerships, but not a bad place to work at all. I work for Chrysler just up the road from there. Welcome to the boards.

Yeah Brookdale Honda was the dealer. I actually have an awesome opportunity in Woodbury so hoping that pans out. Then it's no commute lol. Thanks guys!
