It's looking likely that I'll have to start using the M5 again during rush hour to go to/from Bristol from the south leaving/joining at J18. How bad is it these days with the roadworks?

Joining at J18 to go South is a bh. Takes about half an hour to cover the sliproad. Once you're on the motorway itself its OK.

Came through yesterday at 5:30pm. The worst bit heading south is from Almondsbury / Cribbs (J16/J17) before the bridge, but only took 20mins to get through it. Once you're past J19 at Gordano it starts flowing again.
