Ground Transport

Eleanor brings disruption to UK travel

By Molly Dyson / 3 January 2018 / Contact Reporter
Share

Storm Eleanor battered parts of the UK with high winds and rain, bringing disruption to travel across the country this morning.

Several major bridges were closed overnight and may remain closed or partially closed throughout the day over safety concerns. Fallen trees are reported to be blocking roads, while flooding in Northern Ireland is causing trouble for drivers.

Train lines between Paddington and Hayes are suffering delays after debris on the overhead lines reduced the number of services, while power outages and fallen trees are causing problems on several lines across the country.

Flights out of Dublin and Cork airports are experiencing delays, while British Airways is reporting some delays out of Heathrow.

Forecasts say the wind and rain are expected to ease throughout the day, but weather warnings for some areas will remain in effect until 18:00 today. Travellers are advised to check the status of their flight, train or road before departing.
