Default Ealing to Oxford - anyone advise me on the commute?


On 31-Oct-2004, Tom wrote in :

I currently drive from High Wycombe (M40 J4) to Oxford for work, which is fine,
but am considering moving to Ealing.

I was wondering what it's like getting out of Ealing and onto the A40 - M40 in
the morning these days, and how hectic coming back in the evening?

With thanks


Usually a 10 min tailback on Hanger Lane to join the A40.

Argyle Road is usually easier.

The A40 itself is a fairly hateful stretch of road, though not quite as
bad west of the gyratory as it is closer to town.

I know a number of people who commute in the opposite
direction from places like Oxford or Bicester and they seem
to manage. They're all early birds of course.
