south-bound roads are crazy from about 8 and go mad until 9'ish (after 9.30AM). it probably starts from sembawang but begins to jam up after tagore lane, passing thomson plaza, to (at least) lornie road. the jam starts again just as before you hit queensway - up to bukit merah/alexandra road.
north-bound roads are crazy from about 5'ish and begin from queensway until sembawang. okay by 7'ish (close to 8PM), but god forbid if there's an accident on the PIE (either direction) or flyover.
i drive from alexandra road to upper thomson very regularly but not always during peak hours. if you're a defensive (ballsy) driver, it's manageable on most days once you know where the gaps and unmarked left (bus) lanes are.
without traffic (say, 5AM), the fastest i can make it from sentosa to thomson plaza (alexandra-farrer-thomson road) is under 16 minutes. the longest i've taken is probably 40-45 minutes.
