Millions of drivers are expected to take to the roads this Easter, with the long bank holiday, creating one of the busiest travel periods of the year. According to RAC and transport data, over 19 million journeys are forecast across the weekend, with around 2.5–2.7 million trips per day at peak times.
Traffic is expected to be heaviest from Thursday afternoon through Good Friday, with delays of over an hour on major routes like the M25, M5, and A303. In total, up to 27 million leisure journeys could take place in the wider Easter travel window, highlighting just how busy the roads will be.
It’s not just roads. Rail and travel networks are also under pressure, with engineering works and disruptions expected on key routes, while demand for staycations continues to rise, with around 40% of travellers choosing to stay domestic this Easter . Peak congestion is typically between 11am and 3pm on Good Friday, so drivers are advised to travel early or later in the day where possible.
Planning ahead, checking routes, and preparing your vehicle can make all the difference in avoiding delays and ensuring a smoother Easter getaway.
Staffordshire Police are again warning that they have received reports of suspected counterfeit banknotes being used in the area.
Businesses are advised to carefully check all cash payments, and ensure staff are familiar with the security features of genuine notes.
Members of the public are also asked to remain vigilant when buying or selling items through online marketplaces or social media, as counterfeit cash may be used during in-person transactions.
If you believe you have been given a fake banknote, please avoid passing it on and report the incident to the police.
Any information that may assist should be reported via 101, or 999 in an emergency.

Sandyford & Goldenhill Residents Association has reported a flood problem to Council Highways at the traffic light controlled pedestrian crossing near Sandyford Service Station (top of James Brindley Way).
Residents say that when it rains a large pool of water covers the pavement entrance from the road, and the only way to exit is to either walk through the water or jump over it, which is sometimes dangerous, especially for the elderly or disabled.
Council Highways have responded to the residents association, and said they have now assessed our enquiry and have created a job which will be scheduled to our repair crews shortly.
