I am flying in to London Heathrow on Feb 18th 2017. My flight is landing at 8.20 and I will take a pre-booked taxi/cab to Gatwick airport. My flight out from Gatwick departs at 11.35.
My question is what is the road traffic likely to be on this Saturday morning?

- For Terminal 3: Heathrow Short Stay Car Park Terminal 3, Heathrow Airport (LHR), 521 Stansted Rd, Longford, Hounslow TW6 1QG, UK.
- For Terminal 4: Heathrow Airport, Southern Perimeter Rd, London TW6 3XA, UK

And you are going to Gatwick Airport Gatwick Airport Station, Gatwick Airport, Horley, Crawley RH6 0RD, UK
While T2 and T3 are very close neither T4 nor T5 is.
