That's not so bad, then. I might come through Street and such and find somewhere to stop for food.

Which is what I suggested - it is very, very slow on a Friday on the M6/M5, I did it a couple of weeks ago and it took much longer than at less busy time - although it was also very slow around Manchester, so the whole journey was a bit of nightmare.

Ah yeah, sorry. I meant should I just write off the roadwork section of the M6 and go straight for the Toll, rather than even checking what the traffic is like on the way down?

The 38 mile detour will take an extra half hour or or so at a constant 70, so it'd be quicker than the direct route if it's any slower than about 40mph.

Watch out for M6 Junctions 20 - 14. Always jams up around there and there aren't any easy ways to avoid it. Nothing parallel to the road and everything heads in the wrong direction.
