[quote=fromnj]we are currently renting in torrey highlands (right next to PQ) at camino del sur exit right on 56.
The commute from where I live to Genesee exit on R5 is about 15 min without traffic, but 30-40 min with heavy traffic. I hate to say that traffic is getting worse since we started living in here two years ago.

When pacific hightland ranch and Del Sur/4S/Scripps Ranch build up, R56 may need to expand from 2 lane to 3 lane eventually, otherwise, the commute may become nightmare.

Gee, that indeed is worse than 2 years ago!!! 2 years ago, I owned in RB close to Lake Hodges and NC mall,and the whole commute from our place to UCSD was like 45-50′. Evening were worse, it was a bad bottleneck at the junction 56/5. I assume it only got worse. Commute at rush hour, that’s what killed us, and made us sell our home.
Do you know if they even CAN expand the 56 to 3 lanes? It seems to me they really don’t have the room to do so.
I was going to ask you if you tried going around, via 52, but it’s a big detour from Del Sur.
