brings back memories. i used to get to the M3/M25 junction by about 07:30 otherwise it was normally backed up, i am driving from the east.
most days i took off down the A3 to Guildford and then cut across to the M3 via the A31 and A331........usually much clearer traffic and quicker. good luck! BM52 |

Its been
 ed every night this week with the heavy showers, should be better next week the kids are on holiday and its a lot of factory closedowns. Traffic should be much better for a few weeks. If everything is under control you are not going fast enough.

[quote="BigRuss"]Is anyone able to tell me what the traffic is like where the M3 meets the M25 in the mornings?
Cheer Russ[/quote Depends on direction of travel. If you're on M3 london bound its horrendous, often back to Junc 4 [15 miles!] between 07.30 - 09.00 likewise if on M25 clockwise its a of a queue, stop start for a mile or three.
M3 coastbound or M25 anti-clock never seem to bad.... unless something go's tits up of course. Guns and Landrovers .... anything else is irrelevant. |

I do this everyday, you need to be thru the junction by about 6:45am (M3 to M25) otherwise be prepared for 20-25 mins delay.
if you are doing m25 to m3 then it's ok because you are against the main traffic - However, it only takes a caravanner (like tonight) to screw the whole thing up because the "thought police" highways agency will get on the scene and screw up the flow of traffic. I am guessing this is for a holiday or are you planning on doing it every day ? if you have traffic on your phone, keep an eye on it - fridays are the best day and now the holidays are here, its better. |
