Google maps is a pretty good guide though it assumes you will stick to the speed limit. 50 minutes seems reasonable to me. For that time it must route you over the Port Mann bridge so there is a $3.15 each way toll.

Abbotsford covers quite a large geographic area so the commute time will depend on whereabouts in Abby the job is.

I would say barring any issues like accidents that would be pretty close to an accurate time give or take a bit depending where in Abby your going.

As above take into account the tolls on the bridges if going on Hwy 1.

You will be going against rush hour on the hwy so should not have any major issues provided no accidents causing back ups.

That would be difficult to achieve at rush hour. More like 45-60mins

That has to be without traffic. I cannot imagine making it to VGH that quickly.

Once the ever greenline is up and running, might be easier to take transit to get to VGH.

I know it would require at least 1 transfer so might be too time consuming once those are accounted for.
