There are some 50mph restrictions around Slough but that's it until Reading I think (not been any further than that recently).

M3/A303 will be a far more interesting route.

Used to do that every day whilst working on a project for the Army in deepest Wiltshire, past Thruxton and Stonehenge.....

When I used to travel to Reading almost everyday, the M3 was always quicker than the M4 (mainly because J12 -> J15 of the M25 is usually stuffed). So I would go on the M3 as Google suggests (from: maidstone to: devizes - Google Maps)

The difference in mileage is 3 miles between the M3/A303 and M4 routes. You still have to come off the M4 at J14 and shoot through Hungerford , then Marlborough and to Devizes so I dont actually think there will be much in it.
