Delays on the M20 - May 2025

[Wapping]

Now on Chunnel train. Sailed straight through on M20 with no sign of an Operation Stack-type contraflow ever having been in place.

I believe it is put out by mischievous pixies. How else do thousands of cones appear, as if by magic and then vanish away again? Pixie Lott, is their queen.

Now arrived at Spa-Francorchamps circuit.

Just avoid the M20

Take the M2 (not great granted) then the A2 to Stone Street or go via the Elham Valley Rd. Much nicer and will add 15 mins tops

I may try your suggestion next month as it looks as good. or probably better, than the M20 to Ashford.

The last Operation Brock was put in place for the bank holiday. Traveling to Folkstone/Dover should be back to normal now. Just crap not really crap.

It looked pretty permanent to me, with miles and miles of the huge concrete block lane separators,

well done! I am puzzled, though, what they did with the miles and miles of concrete blocks which were admittedly on the North bound carriageway.

I think that @Wapping came up with the right answer!

I went up and down the M20 in early May. No hint of traffic. Good, as I was in a hurry…. And twice in April… also good.

The biggest problem? Cnuts (probably from outside the M25) who are driving * around in slack jawed wonder and manage (somehow) to get lost in the collection area at Folkestone….. I think there should be a simple test at the bottom of the M1 / M11 / A1 as to their mental capacity. Those lacking (which will be most) should be sent to Rhyl, where they’d be much happier.

* I use the term in its widest sense.

We have enough Cnuts in Rhyl. Thank you, or do you include all of us that live by the sea up north.

 

[Greg Masters]

Turned out nice again!

One final race this morning and then heading home (via M20).

 

[Wapping]

I’ll be there at the end of June for the CrowdStrike 24-hour GT race.

Fantastic viewing circuit.

The camera really flattens out how steep the hill up from Eau Rouge is.

Currently cruising back from the Chunnel on the M20.

Not a single cone or pixie to be seen!

They must have cleared it, just for you!
