Don't think it is particularly worse than before. Seems to flow better coming out in the morning. The problem is the way into Gosport backing everything up not the Market roundabout. Then again I live 2 minutes past the viaduct so it doesn't bother me too much.

I don't normally come back in that late, I live near town but I had to go to the office tonight. maybe its the Christmas shoppers always bad this time of year.

To be honest I've only been doing the traffic commute for the last 3 months, but it is certainly no worse than it has been, much preferred finishing at 3! Although usually only get stuck for about 10 minutes extra on the way back.

Coming out of Tesco's is not good, and the pause between the lights is not clever. Even worse, are the idiots that don't know what the yellow box is for.

Coming from my end of Fareham, it's a lot worse going through the roundabout, to the point I've started to avoid going out that way. Coming out of Turk Town looks better.

I work in Fort Fareham so come in from M27.
Seems to work better in the morning but the delays are still the trafic backed up from the Gosport road.
Coming out in the evening is also better.

VR,

When we were in the Castle, there was an older couple telling us about their near miss, which we also had. And an accident had already taken place.

Mark.

How do mate! cool

To be fair, when we went through there for the first time, it was dark, wet and busy. It was a nightmare, and I wasn't 100% sure if we were jumping a red, or the other car was. I've avoided that junction now. However designed that, needs taking down there, and be flogged in public.

Normally go to asda up on newgate lane, however tried tesco for the first time last week, It was empty inside, not many shoppers, the car park underneath is handy, don't get wet if its pissin it down etc, i have noticed already the boy racers down there driving round the car park listening to their big tin can exhausts etc, i think its taken over from Maccy D/Lidl carpark opposite collingwood.
Coming out of the Carpark was fun, i only ended up in the wrong lane twice on my journey home to Titchfield.
