More than 1,000 miles of roadworks across England will be lifted ahead of the Easter weekend to make journeys ‘as smooth as possible’, the Department for Transport has announced.
National Highways will remove 1,127 miles of motorways and major A roads will be cleared of roadworks and traffic cones by 6am on Thursday - or 97.5 per cent of its network. The roadworks will remain suspended until after Easter Monday.
