worst case from south bellevue via 90/merce to belltown takes me 55 minutes in rush hour. Well a month ago when that wreck was on i-5 I took 405 south to i5 north to belltown and that took 1:30, eg 90 minutes.

If I go in my preferred slot it's 45 minutes max, usually 33 minutes. If I go 10am, 6:45 pm, it's 22 and 20 minutes. Fastest I've ever made it is 19 minutes and that was doing well over the speed limit the whole time on a motorcycle.

Heading to East side is better, yea. And actually, if you are already on Mercer it's not as bad. Getting across from Westlake ish means the bus routinely goes slower than walking speed. Can walk to Fremont faster...
