I did the Deira side of the Creek in Dubai to Masdar City for 6 months. OK going in the morning. Approx 1 hour. Nightmare coming back in the evening - solid traffic from Jebel Ali inbound.
There may also be restrictions on where you live if you are drawing an accommodation allowance from the Abu Dhabi Govt.
Thanks for the info. Someone mentioned that there are no allowances anymore, you just get the salary, and everything is included.
