Good morning and welcome to a very sunny Friday. It's Suzannah back again today with updates every 15 minutes on the travel links near you.

It is set to be another busy day today as the final day of the Great Yorkshire Show gets underway.

We will be running this blog longer than usual to keep you up-to-date on the Show traffic.

The blog, brought to you by the HACS group, will show you where the traffic hotspots and temporary traffic lights are and tell you of any train and bus delays.
