Alright for me, takes 45min by car to and back, 1hr max if heavy traffic. With train/bus roughly 1hr and 20min.

You? Has anyone got a longer journey? :)

I spend over 4 hours going to uni and back in total. Sometimes I end up waiting 20 minutes extra to get in and 40 minutes extra to get out.

I only live like 30km away but my public transport is just shit.

There are other people that have longer trips on here.

If I drove in, I could easily get to the city in 40 minutes unless I go right in peak hour.

Takes 1 hour from my door to Redfern Station by train. The additional time added is dependent on where my first lecture/tute is.

I'd say... 90 minutes each way.

So that's what... 3 hours?

Wow that's pretty terrible.

Takes me 50ish minutes each way plus 5-7 minutes in the car and I live a few KMs further than you from the city.

An hour 20 i think. haven't actually done the trip of a morning yet. Although I'll be used to it, as I travelled that much to get to school everyday...
