Motorists warned about 'long, mad, bad Friday' on local roads

If you're getting into the car for a Bank Holiday getaway - allow extra time for your journey. The RAC is predicting unusually high levels of traffic on roads in Devon.

Drivers have been warned to expect a 'long, mad, bad Friday' on the roads.

And one of the hotspots highlighted by the motoring organisation is the A38 from Exeter to Plymouth - along with the A30 in Cornwall, the M5 from Bristol to Taunton, and the A303.

It seems that for some reason more people than usual are travelling today - when in past years many have made their journeys yesterday.

However some roadworks are being halted to ease traffic - including those on the M5 near Exeter between junctions 30 and 29.
