Good morning, it’s Connor back on the traffic and travel desk early this morning hoping to help you avoid disruption on the roads and rail lines.

These blogs, brought to you by The HACS Group, aim to keep the district running smoothly.

If you get stuck in traffic or spot something, and it is safe, then give me a call on 01423 276197.
