Hi

Can anyone recommend a good website to check before heading on a journey - Basically starting a new job soon, and will be doing a lengthy commute with two possible routes - It would be handy to be able to do a quick check before leaving to see if either is blocked ??

Thanks

Check out our website, there's also a real time traffic reports on a tickertape across the top of the screen and if you click on it, it takes you to a more in-depth traffic report.

Are you kidding? The last time I checked "your" website I sat in traffic for 2 hours in spite of no warnings beforehead. Thank you! And please make sure you switch misleading messages about accidents that happened 10 hours ago.

Sorry about the accuracy of the site and the matrix signs. I'm afraid I can't comment about them as I'm just a lowly, poorly paid on-road womble. wink
