Sunday 1 Sept Silverstone traffic
« on: 29 August 2013, 09:13:41 pm »
I m doing the Lofo ride on Sunday and plan to head to Bicester down the A5 from the north passed Jacks cafe turn right onto the A43 to then turn left onto the A413 to head to Buckingham. Now there is a big event on at Silverstone so will I be able to use this route and how bad will the traffic be, travelling through there about 10am.

Will be quite a bit of traffic about but there are NO diversions or restrictions on the A43.

Ignore me.  Too much rum and coke and too little sleep.

I really wouldn't go that way Chris, traffic will be ridiculous on those roads, you'd be better off jumping on the A361 further north across to the M40 down to Bicester!
Some say...

Its not normally too bad, circuit traffic tends to queue in the left hand lane only, on a bike youll piss it.
