    Please be aware. Currently ALL major trans-Pennine routes are currently closed (#A69, #A66, #M62) due to heavy snow and multiple incidents involving vehicles which are struggling with the weather. Please do not attempt to use these routes until they've been cleared and reopened.

    #Northumberland Our crews have worked hard to clear the #A1 in both directions, between the junctions of the #A1068 near #Alnwick and the #Scottish border following severe weather. The road is now fully open. Have a safe onward journey.

    The third phase of the #A1 #Leeming to #Barton opens today wit all the restrictions lifted on the A1 in both directions as part of the major upgrade to the motorway-improving connections between north and south, easing congestion and making journeys quicker than before.

    All closures on the #A66 between #ScotchCorner #A1M and #A685 #Brough have now been removed. @Cumbriapolice & @DurhamPolice , along with our Service Providers, have checked the route following tireless work to get it cleared and severe weather over the last few days.

    A sample of some of the conditions our crews have been working hard to clear on the #A66 between #ScotchCorner and #Brough. Images are from yesterday, however work has continued in order to get the route open as soon as we can, and it is due to be inspected later this morning.
