It cuts about a half-hour off the route.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 As for avoiding the worst backups on I-5, it all depends on where those backups are, and the eventual location. Folks should consult www.sigalert.com if they can, and listen to KFWB-AM (980) and KNX-AM (1070) for traffic reports.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The best answer, of course, is to allow plenty of time.
