Tomorrow I have got to travel from Ipswich to Reading... I have 2 easy route choices so am after some weather updates from anyone along the potential routes. Roads in question and areas are?
A12, Chelmsford, Colchester and M25 area
M25, North and South side as either can be used
M4, Heathrow - Reading
M3, M25 to jcn3
A14, Ipswich to Cambridge
A428, Cambridge-Bedford and beyond
Just to give me an idea which way is better when I look tomorrow :y :y :y :y :y

Had five buses stuck in the snow up our road.. :D

m4 from heathrow to reading is usually good in morning, most is coming into london, been heavy snow here so m4 maybe congested tomorrow around heathrow area cause of the delays and cancellations. can be a nightmare at the junction

Yep... Plan to check it but I prefer real info from real people instead of computer and sensor generated info if I can get it :y :y :y

If thats the case, use M25 -M4 to Reading or any other Major Route as they are the ones that get gritted first. Just keep listening to your radio. Good luck. :y

Not necessarily the best way though... Today the M25 was chaos because some rather idiots just assume that as it's been gritted they can race around it like a dry day >:( >:( >:(
Thanks though... Radio is always tuned to a BBC station on a long journey and I also have TM :y :y
Trouble is I've got to get to the M25... 75 ish miles of bad A road as the A12 hasn' been up to the job for years ::) ::) ::)
