Hi all,

I'm travelling down the M5 tomorrow to a site near Chard and have stupidly not checked the route first. We're already away so I'm on my phone and can't get streetview to work. Is it possible to turn right from the A358 (Furnham Road) onto the A30 (Fore Street?)

The site is west of Chard so my other alternative is to take the A358 then A303 from J25 but getting onto the A30 from the A303 looks tricky on the map? That is the google recommended route (and probably my satnav's) but I know better than to blindly follow that!

We're here now and that right turn I'd been worried about was a doddle in the end. You were right about some of the corners! Bit narrow for my liking in a couple of places but it was fine.
