I drove up to Gatwick earlier and there are a load of cones out. Roadworks until August 2014. Sigh
Is the road still closed from 10 - 4 or has it changed ?
40 mph speed limits start tomorrow cameras up both sides now going to be a frigging nightmare
This is what makes me laugh in this country. August 2014. I think the French built their high speed line from the Channel Tunnel to Paris in this time.
The speed limit might actually smooth your journeys, seeing as most of the delays on Handcross Hill are caused by people driving too fast, and up the arse of the car in front, meaning they have to brake every 20 yards, and causing a chain reaction from every other vehicle in the queue.

Arrived in Creepy Crawley from brighton about 10 minutes ago, and albeit a touch slower than normal, it flowed quite well. However it is catching some people out as you are going up towards warninglid turn off. 3 in to 2 earlier and they are still trying to fly by in the fast lane and then a massive show of brake lights. There will be some accidents there i bet.
anyway all was well then, safe travels people.

Are you talking about the road widening at Handcross. They don't appear to have done anything apart from remove the trees. Its been on for about 6 months now.
Is it just me, or did the removal of the trees make that stretch of road - especially southbound - feel a lot safer already? Part of the problem was surely that section with the downhill curve and very little view ahead thanks to the trees.
