Talk about perfect timing. Biglorryblog learns that no less than 900 miles of motorway roadworks are planned for August. And where do I get this intelligence. Why, from none other than a Parliamentary answer to Liberal Democrat Shadow Transport Secretary, Norman Baker. Baker tells BLB: "Holidaymakers face gridlock and delays on English roads this August, with more than 900 miles of roadworks planned on motorways, just when families are planning to getaway this summer they face hours of misery on the motorway."

The Parliamentary answer, which includes a regional breakdown, is available here:
