National Highways is advising motorists and their passengers to be well prepared for any journeys being planned this weekend and early next week – including taking drinking water. The Met Office has issued a warning for Extreme Heat for most of England from Sunday to Tuesday. National Highways is keen for everyone travelling on its roads during the heatwave to take extra precautions to keep safe and well.
Drivers considering travelling over the coming days should:
- Take a bottle of water before setting out to ensure you stay hydrated
- Plan and leave plenty of time for journeys
- Check the weather forecast for your destination
- Check your vehicle before you leave
- Check travel conditions before setting out and, where it is safe to do so, during journeys.
