What is the best time to drive Ann Arbor from macomb?

What is the best time to drive down to Ann Arbor every time? I love driving down there spending time down there, but the drive is just such a drag. seriously ends up taking two to three hours with all of the traffic and construction, it is just unbearable like I would almost rather just drive further around then sit in traffic. I have gone on friday afternoons. I’ve gone on a random Tuesday morning no matter when I go. It always seems to be the same. When is the best time to drive from Macomb County Utica area to Ann Arbor and what is the best route?
