Does one who travels daily avail himself of the dispensations for travel?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you and bless you. This brother, the questioner, says: Shaykh, I work outside the city of Riyadh at a distance of approximately one hundred and fifty kilometers, and I go and return daily. Do the rulings of travel apply to me, such as shortening the prayer and the like?

Answer:
Yes, as long as you travel a distance of the shortening distance, which is eighty kilometers or more, you shorten the prayer. You break your fast in Ramadan if you need to break it, whether going and returning, or at the place of work if you return on the same day. You also shorten the prayer, except if you pray with the people of the town, in which case you complete it following the imam. Yes.
