From Manchester (M1, M2, M3) the natural line out is the M60 and the M6 and the M1, joining A102 Blackwall Tunnel Approach, then Millennium Way for the last part of the journey. Door to door it works out at roughly 202.5 miles. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 4h 05m off-peak becomes 4h 55m when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.
