Drivers in Reading are warned of more possible delays to their journeys after a week of traffic jams.

People have faced long delays this month due to roadworks being conducted by utilities companies, which have a legal right to conduct works on equipment in the public highway.

Drivers and passengers have reported delays of up to an hour and a half and two hours due to traffic jams, with Reading Buses cancelling two services due to roadworks this passed Wednesday alone.

Therefore, a list of roadworks that could cause delays for drivers has been compiled.

Information about the works has been taken from The AA and one.network a public record of roadworks throughout the UK.

You can view the works to watch out for below:
