A20 vs A2 vs A13 outer London - which quickest

[chris7676]

I'm planning to get to Brands on one Saturday through one of these roads and simply would like to ask which is likely to be the quickest (traffic, speed limits, etc) as don't know these roads. Thanks in advance

How long's a piece of string! Depends where you're coming from really: A20 is 40-50mph until about 4 miles before you come off at Swanley, 5 mins from Brands.
A2 is i think 50mph until you get also to within 3-4 miles of the m25 where you'll be 10 mins from Brands.
No idea about the a13, but obviously as soon as you hit the m25 you're coming the right direction for a clear run - 12/15 mins from the bridge to Brands.

Where exactly in London are you starting from?

Just north of Finsbury Park this time... Seems like getting to Blackwall Tunnel is not a bad option?

A20 for me. Early morning Saturday, it would be empty.

edit... there wont be much in it between the A2/A20... but A13 would be pointless.
