    Just looked on a traffic camera website, it appears the M1 is closed in both directions between the Dodworth and Birdwell junctions. Shut off by police though rather than roadworks.

    Tell me about it. Driving south at 1:40 pm I thought I'd get off at J37 rather than J 38; bad decision, took me 50 minutes to get from Pogwell Lane bridge to the Dodworth turn off.

    This happens on a regular basis , when there is a problem on the M1 Hoyland Common gets completely gridlocked, cannot wait until The biggest distribution centre in Europe opens as well ( Herpes ) just to add to the total chaos .

    I’ve done something even more stupid than that today - involving someone stuck in aforementioned traffic and an imminent lower league football match.

    It’s nose to tail on the Tay Road Bridge. Plenty cars and buses with blue and white scarves out of the windows.
    Apparently the queue stretches past Edinburgh all the way to Berwick and beyond.
