Hundreds of miles of roadworks will be lifted or completed in time for Easter, Highways England has announced.

It says that 459 miles of roadworks - meaning around 99% of motorways and major A roads – will be roadworks-free.

Highways England’s customer service director, Melanie Clarke, said: “We’re doing everything we can to make journeys as smooth as possible this Easter and that’s why we’re keeping around 99% of the road network we manage, free from roadworks.”

The motorway and major A-road network will be free of roadworks from 6am Thursday, April 18, until 12.01am on Tuesday, April 23.
