Roger - I live south of Sydney - and drive along the M5/Airport Tunnel/Eastern Distributor to Pyrmont every day. It takes me (on the way in) an average of 110 minutes every day to get to work. The home trip takes just under two hours. This is for a 75km one-way trip along major freeways.
Add that up - and it comes to an average of 230 minutes per day or just under four hours. A weeks-worth of travel averages out to 20 hours of travel time. I kid you not. If i didn't need the car during the day I'd probably stoop to taking NSW public transport, and suffer everyone else's colds my whole working life.
Luckily I'm starting to work a bit more from home - thanks to decent high-speed Internet communications these days.
Enjoy Perth.
