Avoiding M20 to Eurotunnel?

[nobrakes]

Travelling from SW London to the Eurotunnel:

Trying to avoid the lorry park on the M20 to get to J11a. Does this sound ok?

Take J6 on the M20 (near Maidstone) over to the M2 then on to the A2 then cross back over?

Looks simpler than following diversion carry-on.

Thoughts?

Thanks. Will be driving around 1am to 2am to catch the early train. There is usually disruption (reduction to 2 lanes) even in the M25.

I was just thinking this time I figure the M2 A2 will be quieter. I reckon the A20 will be a s/show and that it’s probably a similar time to the M2/A2 route, but at least you’d still be able to make spirited progress to make up for the extra distance.

Thanks all.

Looks like I could turn off the A2 at Canterbury and re-joint the M20 at J10.

If not this, there’s bound to be some other carry-on.

I'm doing it in a week's time, but for the earliest train, so hoping it won't be so bad, but it's a sad reflection on the state of affairs various different occurrences have brought the country to.....

...just going to let Google Maps sort it for me on the day.

Might be best trying your sat nav/Google route a week before at the same time you plan to leave.
