I travel of a distance of 7 mile from home to work. I travel through spagetti in Birmingham. Last week it took 2 1/2 hrs to do this journey for no obvious reason at the end of the Journey. I lost 3 hrs pay and to say I was pi$$ed would be an understatment. This journey takes me 20-35 min. on a good day.

I wonder if that was the same day it took me 2 hours CG? I come off at J6, though I've tried using the toll road too. Unfortunately you fly down the toll road and then come to a halt on the M42/M6 when you're trying to get back to J6. I totally agree .... it's so frustrating and very unpredictable.  |

50 miles for me, Kettering to Tyrefort, A14 and then the M6 to junction 5.
Usually takes me about an hours, an illegal hour that is.
