I live on Cranston Road, by the lollipop lady's spot, and while there are often tailbacks almost as far as Loxton, they've been coming past my door regularly in the last two weeks. Most of these are self-regulating, as people just turn up Loxton and use Colfe or Kemble to get to Stanstead, but I guess not everyone's so familiar with the area.

As an aside - a friend of mine from the north-west, who visits on a regular basis, will take an entirely different combination of motorways, depending on how long this queue is upon leaving my house. Which is a bit odd.
