As the school summer holidays kick off, motorists can expect continued delays on key routes including the M5, M4, A30, and A38. Increased traffic volumes typical of holiday periods are putting added pressure on these major roads, resulting in slower journeys and congestion hotspots throughout the region.
Top travel arteries like the M5 and M4 are experiencing heavier-than-usual traffic as families set off for their vacations. The A30 and A38 are also showing signs of congestion, especially at known bottleneck points and junctions. Authorities advise road users to plan ahead, allow extra travel time, and monitor traffic updates when planning trips during this busy season.
Despite ongoing roadworks and maintenance efforts aimed at easing traffic flow, holiday traffic patterns are proving challenging to manage. Drivers are reminded to stay patient, drive safely, and keep an eye out for any updated information on road conditions to ensure a smoother journey.
