From Basingstoke (RG21, RG22, RG23, RG24) the natural line out is the M3 J6 and the A33, joining M27 J7, then A334 Botley Road for the last part of the journey. That is about 31.5 miles door to door. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 55 min off-peak becomes 1h 05m when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.
