What did you do to deserve that? :blink:

Are you erecting certain 'structures' at Dale Farm...? ;)

As of 2PM, the A12 is still closed London-bound at Witham - anyone coming from that way should avoid the A12 entirely as congestion is apparently back as far as J28, unless it opens and clears soon.

Easy to get round if not via Birch / Tiptree / Wickham Bishops.

According to this it won't reopen today - http://www.essexlive.news/a12-lorry-cra ... story.html
So traffic will be clogging up the surrounding roads which means peak period congestion will take longer to dissipate. The Boreham roundabout will be properly rammed.

I'm afraid with the A12 situation, if it's not re-opened I'll have to give it a miss until next month. Too flipping cold as well!

I don't think Boreham will be too bad, the closure is in one direction only.

You can also avoid most of the Boreham roundabouts by going via Hatfield Peverel!

Hopefully the a12 coming from the m25 won't be much worse than it usually is
