Yes, but it involves some climbing.

There's also Saratoga - Hwy 9 through Ben Lomond:

There are no routes that don't involve climbing up and over the Coast Range Mountains

It might not be so bad right now, but in general I would (and have) rather climb an extra 2000 ft than subject myself to Highway 9 traffic.

Really? I don't find it bad. On the southbound uphill side there's a substantial shoulder. On the downhill through Felton the traffic has always been minimal for me. Maybe it's the time of day I usually ride.
Which is good advice for derail3: do try to avoid commute times
