So, Yea I've been doing this drive every day and haven't quite figured it out yet. My record for getting home is 1 hour and 15 minutes. I take I-45 north to South 610 West to 59 South to Westpark Tollway Westbound to Beltway 8 Northbound and exit West Little York Rd. and take it to Barker-Cypress, which is 2 miles from my home. Any suggestion on anything quicker?

At least when people ask me where I live and I say Houston I mean it, I live throughout the whole thing.

Seriously though, you can exit Westpark from 610 north to get on the WP tollway. Dunno if that's any faster for you. You're making pretty good time as it is, relatively speaking. It takes me an hour to get home (parking lot to garage) going from the Galleria to Clear Lake, never leaving the city limits either. So until you can get that plane, helicopter, or switch on those jet-packs underneath your car, I'm afraid you're doing as good as possible.

Ya know, you might be right about hitting it from 610, maybe i'll try it today, it's always so backed up at 610 and 59 it'd be nice to surpass that.

If you're going north Westpark has its own exit. You can take that and you'll hit Westpark, 59, then Richmond. This is my exit every morning.
