Driving times

Hi guys

I am trying to get an idea of how long it takes drive from various places in Doha, during rush hour and non-rush.

As a little study , can i ask people respond with travel times from their home area to work. This is to get a feel for travel time during rush hour and non-rush from and too different areas. If Area Names could follow as per this very usefull map //www.dohamap.info/map/
That would be really helpful.

Basically for myself i'm wanting to work out how long it would take from the Corniche, DESS or the from up by the Peral to get to Toyota Roundabout near the airport. But don't restict responses to that route.

Hopefully this may be of use and interest to quite a few people.

Cheers

Cheers for your comments, i'm currntley working in Dubai, and I move to Doha next month. I travel from The far end of Dubai Marina to Trade Centre Roundabout. Takes me 25 mins on a general trip, so i'm not fazed by extending that time a little longer.
