I left early to work to allow for delays.

1) I left early to work to allow for delays.

2) You should leave early to allow for delays to reach office on time.

Please check my sentences. Does "Allow for delays" mean to give spare time to yourself in order to not get late (Can we use "Get" here?) by traffic?

As GS said, the answers to both your questions can be found in your previous thread. Note that both sentences you have provided in this thread are ungrammatical.

Tufguy, what's missing in the part I emphasized? This isn't the only mistake, but let's start here.

You can't give yourself spare time. You simply leave early early enough so that if there's a delay caused by traffic it won't make you late.

Congratulations on finding and fixing the missing determiner. You could also have written to reach your office.

The sentence will be better if you rearrange it. As written, it looks like the delays cause you to reach the office.
