He's in a for a crappy commute, no matter which way he goes.

According to that google map it takes a half hour the way it shows it. And unfortunately that is the best way to go. I bet any money it'll take an hour, maybe a bit more. Unfortunately there's no direct route to 16th from that area. At least in the mornings there usually isn't a ton of traffic on Bow Tr. turning to go north on Sarcee, most of it's going straight through the lights to get downtown. After that your worst spot will probably be going east on 16th from Sarcee through Montgomery. A ton of traffic there trying to get on to Memorial. Usually it's not too bad at the top of the hill near foothills but we're talking the busiest time of the year right now with kids going back to school, vacations being over, etc. As far as the east side of the city goes, I can't say, I don't go over there.
