I worked at the corner of Wiehle and Sunrise Valley. The first/last part of my commute was along the sidewalk over the toll road. Part of the reason was getting out on Sunrise Valley, down Wiehle, and having to cross over would have taken another 5 minutes. On the way back I'd have to dodge the traffic uphill.
That said, crossing the couple intersections on the sidewalk is very hazardous. In particular, Sunset Hills, where the turn on red drivers hit stopped speeds in excess of 15 mph - and are NOT looking right.
