Think I might go across to the M6 and straight down instead of the usual A1, M1, A42   M42

We are travelling down the M5 on saturday. We are going from Norwich to Romford on Friday,  then leaving about 3am on saturday morning to go the rest of the way. We are going to dawlish warren so come off motorway at Exeter. Hopefully will be eating breakfast by 8.00am

i live in Devon - about 5 mins from junctions 27 and 28.

At the moment the worst problem coming in to Devon we find is on the Taunton to Wellington stretch of M5 near Taunton Deane services.  Going down to 1 lane in both directions - long term roadworks, worst seems to be going northbound.

Try to avoid peak times, but if you cannot avoid make sure you have some water in the car - especially in this hot weather

Thanks for the response ShirleyJane - Have you actually travelled the A399? I ask because I have been advised to avoid it as it's not suitable for caravans and wondered whether I should try it.

Thanks
