I do experience some bottleneck and slow down driving to work (near Montgomery Field) and back via 52. However it’s nowhere near as bad as the I-15 commute to/from San Marcos, where I used to live. It takes me just 15-20 minutes each way.

This was something I was fairly worried about, since I’ve heard horror stories about the 52 commute, and it would be the shortest distance to my work (I work in Sabre Springs). I was hoping that it would improve once they had the third lane all the way from Mast through to 15 (which was recently completed). I take it that from your experience it is significantly improved over what it used to be?

If it’s too bad, the alternate route that some of my coworkers take is the 67 north and cut through Poway, but I was definitely hoping that the new improvements would help the 52 commute. It’ll be even nicer once they have the offramp to Cuyamaca open (though I don’t know whether they’ll open that early or whether we have to wait til the entire leg to the 67 is completed late next year).
