England Lifts Roadworks, Warns of Easter Rail Disruption
National Highways will lift 1,127 miles of roadworks across England's motorway and major A road network for the Easter weekend, ensuring 97.5% of these roads are free of traffic cones to ease travel for approximately 19 million drivers each day from Good Friday to Easter Monday. Despite the eased road conditions, congestion is still expected around town centers, retail parks, and major routes such as the M6, M25, M5, and A303. The Department for Transport is increasing fines for overrunning streetworks, mandating greater use of lane rental revenue for highway maintenance, freezing fuel duty, and investing £1.6 billion in pothole repairs, potentially saving drivers up to £500 a year. Rail travel in Essex and East Anglia will be disrupted due to engineering work, including partial closures at Liverpool Street station and some rail replacement services. Motorists and rail passengers are advised to plan ahead and allow extra travel time due to the holiday rush and ongoing works. These combined efforts are part of broader government measures to improve travel and support families amid cost-of-living pressures.
