How long would it take to commute from the Round Rock Dell campus (1 Dell Way) to the South Austin Austin Community College Campus on Stassney Lane? Google Maps says 32 minutes, up to 40 in traffic taking I-35, but I'd like to talk to someone who actually has/does drive it.

My boyfriend would be leaving work at 5 pm to head over to class.

Any input? Thanks.

I made that drive for 2 years RR3 to 1626 and if he leaves at 5pm plan on at least 90 mins on I35. I would leave at 3:00 and it took me an hour to get home. There are several alt. routes to get you around the traffic like 183 or hop on Red River to avoid a collision on I35. During UT session traffic will start to build around 3:30pm and will become bumper to bumper around the split or 290 and remain that way past the river sometimes past ben white. I30 was not around when I made the drive so I don't know what impact this has had. Plan on 90 mins and get familiar with Parmer, Braker, Burnet, Lamar, Red River other ways to get to Stassney because when it rains there is always a wreck on I35 at the Stassney overpass due to the slight curve in the freeway. Good luck it is not a fun drive but at 5pm what drive in Austin is fun?

I'd say take 130 from Dell down to South Austin and then over, at that time of day.
