Title: Traffic Updates
Post by: Ardiles on Wednesday, December 23, 2009, 16:22:48
I'm collecting family from Gatwick this evening.  Before I head out & brave the M25, would anyone be able to let me know which traffic websites they use for live traffic updates?  I've not yet found one that I would swear by.  Thanks.

I used to use Vauxhall's trafficnet for motorway/A road speeds. I can't find it anymore - anyone know if its gone?

Thanks.  Think I'll try going via Guildford then to miss most of that.

I use my sat nav, which doesn't help you in any way.
