Many schools across the UK finished for the Easter holidays on Friday 4 April, with most planning holidays right through to Easter Monday, 21 April. Over the holidays, there will be severe delays on some roads and motorways.
Key intercity rail links will be interrupted by planned Network Rail engineering work, especially over Easter. Airlines are warning of the most delayed flights in a quarter-century, as air traffic control centres struggle with staff shortages. And ferry passengers may encounter delays – returning from France.
