Taylor's Hill v Caroline Springs v Craigieburn 37Dec 17, 2008 8:46 pm hunts01 We have a block of land in Diamond Creek, which cost under 200,000 and I work in the city. It takes 35 minutes to drive to work inthe morning and about 45 peak at night, Just wandering what time you drive into the city and which route you take.. as I will be moving to doreen which would only make 5-10mins difference to get to the big roundabout between diamond creek and greensborough. I can get to royal park area in 30mins from doreen on the w'ends.. so just wandering what it would be like peak.. if you are talking peak then that would make it 40-45mins for me. And I voted Cragieburn.. I'm just not a big fan of the west... have friends in taylors lakes, st albans, sunbury.. don't like any of those suburbs.. Re: Which Estate? Taylor's Hill v Caroline Springs v Craigieburn 38Dec 17, 2008 9:20 pm Hi there,
I usually leave about ten past 7 in the morning and get into the city at about 7.45. Once the ring road is extended to three lanes it will make a huge difference. The time to get home leaving at 4pm is about the same. If I leave the city at 5.00pm then it will take about 45 min. We are actually thinking about moving out to Doreen to rent whilst we build, as we can rent a new 4 bedroom place for only 350.00 compared to a two bedroom unit in Greensborough for 300. When the Plenty Road extension is finished it should be alright, however from experience going south on Plenty road in the morning in Peak is not pleasant!, would nearly be worthwhile going Diamond Creek Road, and on the Ringer there, although I haven't done it for a while. Anyway, as I have said before, if you choose to live in a nice area and feel safe and happy, whats 15 - 20 min in the car extra each day!! Re: Which Estate?

I assume it wouldn't be as busy as plenty rd... So I assume you take the ring rd to the tulla and then into the city? Re: Which Estate? Taylor's Hill v Caroline Springs v Craigieburn 40Dec 18, 2008 10:29 am Yes take the ring road to the tulla and into the city.
Depending if you live in the real northern sections of Doreen you might take Bridge Inn road or Gorge Road instead of coming into Greensborough. Cheers Howdy all. I am looking for feedback on what people would do to maximise and make an area as flat as possible.
