Am I mad? Should I chance the M3 > M25 route or go down the A30 and join up with the M25 at J3 instead? What was the traffic like today?

I have to get to J18 of the M25 by 10.30am for a meeting and don't normally join the scrum so I don't know what the traffic is normally like; For my standard commute to Farnborough I normally go under the M3 near CAF and sometimes the traffic on the bridge between J4a and J4 is at a standstll at 7.30am - 8.30am

Cheers in advance smile

Do yourself a favour and leave at 9am at the latest. Check AA Roadwatch while having your breakfast/morning coffee/tea. With the current weather conditions there's quite a few road closures causing more traffic to major routes e.g. this morning problems between Wentworth and Bracknell all the way thru Ascot!!

I am a local, living just off J4a, but very rarely use the M3 > M25.

Seems the traffic is a bit pants either way today - I'll leave earlier

Thanks everyone smile
