Out of London on the M11
The M11 starts at junction 4 by Redbridge, where the North Circular and the A12 feed into it. Coming out of central London, most traffic joins the motorway either from the A406 or at junction 27 of the M25, and on a weekday morning the M25's eastern side is the slower way in.
After junction 6 the M11 clears. You pass Harlow, Bishop Stortford and Stansted on your right, and between junctions 8 and 10 there's seldom much congestion. On the low-lying ground south of Duxford, seasonal fog is a real issue, and it holds up the journey more often than sheer traffic does.
Trumpington and the south of the city are off junction 11. For Madingley Road and the western side, it's junction 13. Take junction 14 to join the A14 heading north and east. Pick the wrong exit and you'll go all the way round the ring road.
