Evening all,

Thinking seriously about moving to the Colchester area this summer and currently work in E. London. Nature of my work means shifts that can start around 5am but can vary all over the place.

Normally I'll be getting a train but there will be times I have to drive so my question is at what time does it start to get busy? Obviously will avoid at normal rush hour times but would it be ok around 6-6.30am?

Thinking A12, M25, M11 then back on the A12 at Redbridge.

Ta in advance!

it is quite a quick run,......



as long as nothing goes wrong,
it's all motorway/dual carriageway so you can't turn round if there is an incident and it all blocks up,it happens time to time,the m11 can back up to harlow,and at 6am most people have the same idea.i suspect it will only get worse as more people migrate outwards.

Starts clogging at ingrate stone about 6.45. Same with Brook St, and where the M11 goes down to 2 lanes, that bottles up from 6.30-6.45.
