traffic blackspots

I am looking to fly into Luton, England on a friday and notice that there are several areas listed as blackspots on the way down to somerset.
Anybody have any knowledge of times to avoid etc?
TIA

Errrr, any time between 7am and 8pm I should imagine.
have you thought of flying to Bristol instead?

well that is postive news
flying into bristol means i have to change flights in amsterdam and wanted to fly direct and pick up a car

Well if you could get in on a tuesday, wednesday or thursday and leave Luton between 10 and 11am you should have the best chance.
