Easter weekend travel chaos fears as drivers told 'stay at home' with millions more cars on roads due to shutdown train lines

And traffic jams are expected to peak on Good Friday, with motorists warned to avoid travelling on major routes from during the day.RAIL CHAOS

£100million-worth of Network Rail projects this weekend sees Britain's busiest rail route, the west coast mainline, shut in three places – London Euston, Preston and near Glasgow. London to Glasgow, usually 4hr 30min, will take 7hr via the west coast, or 5hr 30min via the east coast, braced for overcrowding.This will lead to clogged roads particularly on Good Friday, when mobility analytics provider INRIX says major routes will be at their busiest between 11am and 4.30pm.Other badly hit routes include the M25 anticlockwise through the Dartford Tunnel and the M62 west between Leeds and Manchester.

"For drivers looking to avoid the worst congestion, the best options are to travel on Saturday, set off early in the morning and keep updated with real-time traffic data."
