Teleworking, shifting travel times, and compressed work weeks will all help alleviate congestion during the viaduct closure.

Telework

Avoid a commute all together and get work done at home.  Studies even show teleworkers are more efficient than their at work counterparts-just be sure to set yourself up for success before you start working at home.

Shifted Travel Times

If you have to drive alone, try avoiding peak times (typically 6 AM to 10 AM and 3 PM to 7 PM).  Not only will it speed up your commute, it frees up space for others who can't shift their schedule. Grab dinner with a coworker or friend before heading home at some of Redmond's restaurants to avoid the evening crunch.

Compressed Work Week

A compressed work week allows you to work a full 40 hour week in fewer days. These longer days will add up to one full day where you don't need to travel into the office.

4/10s

You work four, ten hour days instead of the traditional five, 8 hour days, getting one day less of commuting each week.

9/80

80 hours of work are spread over nine days, so you will take 1 extra day off your commute every two weeks.
