ManchesterGlasto Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 (edited) Currently sat not moving on the a37 about 11 miles from site. Expected to be parked up and in gate b queue by now. Is this a tail back to the delayed campervan access?? Anyone else?? Edited June 21, 2016 by ManchesterGlasto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muddychick Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 All due to late opening of campervan field and also an accident a few hours ago didn't help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostypaw Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 it does sound like it's all about the campervans, it'll hopefully get moving as their numbers dwindle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ducky89 Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 Do we think this tailback will clear by the morning? Setting off from home at 4.30 and should take about 30 mins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bekimo Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 It took us 6 hours from Lyndon on fosse to get here. We're now pitched and we've eaten. So tired, very upset and fed up. Hopefully a good nights sleep will fix it all up! good luck everyone still out there. I hope you get here swiftly and safely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried turning it off and back on again? i.e. you'll wake up tomorrow in the right place and all will be better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrokenDown Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 Has this ever happened on the way in before? So much for few hours kip in the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smeble Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 I know one thing that would have helped the queue, not sending all the cars down the same little lane as the camper vans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smeble Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 Here's a thought if you are going to delay the campervans by 6 hrs you need to do the same with the cars, #notrocketscience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do let us know when you hit the camper van site (& which one you end up in). I'd be interested to see if the time on the lane has dropped. I could have cried earlier today on that lane!

One of the reasons people started heading there so early was because of mahoosive traffic jams think in 2009. Used to be able to walk onto an empty site before then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
