Police urge Brightons drivers to be cautious after severe weather warning
7 December
Police are urging Brightons drivers to be cautious after the Met Office issued a red weather warning across the area.
Major disruptions are expected within Central Scotland tomorrow (Thursday, December 8) as strong winds of up to 90mph batter the country.
Police advise that conditions for travel between 3pm and 6pm are likely to be extremely poor and significant delays are expected.
This could lead to all main road bridges being closed and will have a severe impact on tomorrow night's rush hour.
Disruption to power supplies and property is also a strong possibility.
Assistant Chief Constable Allan Moffat urged motorists to plan ahead for any journeys by checking travel updates through television, radio and internet sites before they set off.
He said: "If the weather is as severe as currently being predicted, then there will be a significant impact on the roads network with a high risk of disruption.
"As with any conditions that can make driving and travel hazardous, I would ask that people drive with caution, plan ahead to ensure routes are open and safe, and be prepared for any delays or disruption that could affect their journey."
