Time Calculation - here Sensor Template , need help

Hi,

i hope you are all fine.
Today i am seeking help for an automation i have in mind for very long time but was not able to build.

I would like to show the point with a led stripe and color, when i have to have to start drive to work in the morning.
So if there is more traffic, i have to drive a bit more earlier.

Wih the new here sensor, this seems to be realizable.

So here is what i have so far (pretty the same from the example).

Automaton:

- id: weekdays check traffic every minute
  initial_state: 'on'
  trigger: 
  - platform: time_pattern
      minutes: '/1'
  condition:
    - condition: time
      after: '06:00:00'
      before: '07:30:00'
    - condition: time
      weekday:
        - mon
        - tue
        - wed
        - thu
        - fri
  action:
    - service: homeassistant.update_entity
      entity_id: sensor.work_tro

sensor:

  - platform: here_travel_time
    name: work_tro
    traffic_mode: true
    app_id: "xxxx"
    app_code: "xxx"
    origin_latitude: "xxxx"
    origin_longitude: "xxxx"
    destination_latitude: "xxxx"
    destination_longitude: "xxxx"

i think and im not sure about this, i need then a template sensor, which checks the work_tro sensor.

I need to be at work at 8 AM, so check the current time plus the travel time, if it is then 7.45 AM make the string green, will it be 7.55 AM orange and everything after 8 AM make it red

The rest i could with normal automations, like turn off the string if it is after 8 AM etc etc.
But i have an issue on how to realise the calculöation.

then i would need an automation like this:

Automation:

- id: traveltime work_to
  initial_state: 'on'
  trigger:
  	platform: numeric_state
    entity_id: sensor.xxxx
    above: 45
  action: 
  	service: light.turn_on
  	entity_id: light.xxx

I hope what i am tryining to reach and someone can help me here
