Norfolkvillas Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Not sure what time you'd be driving through Earls Ct, but I drive into work (Chiswick) and back every day via EC and the roads have been blissfully quiet - my journey is usually 1hr 10 mins ish and I've been doing it in 45mins this week - I wish it was going to be the Olympics and school holidays forever.... I go South Circ and over Batt bridge then up through EC and turn left onto the A4. The dedicated Olympics lane has been open to normal traffic on the A4 every time I've been past it - not sure if this would also be the case on the A40 (if there is an Olympics lane on the A40 - not sure, sorry)Hope this helps!

Strawberryfields Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 We went to Oxford at the weekend and to avoid all London (Olympic) Traffic we headed out to the M25 at Croydon then straight round to the M40... It was totally traffic free and got us to Oxford in good time.
