Here are the latest traffic and travel news from traffic update dot co dot UK at 8:14 am. Well folks, let's dive straight into the traffic updates. It looks like we've got a few hiccups on the roads today, so buckle up and let's get going.Starting off in Manchester, we've got reports of heavy congestion around the M60 near Junction 24, so be prepared for delays in that area. Meanwhile, over in Birmingham, there are slow-moving traffic on the A38 around Dartmouth Circus due to roadworks, so best to avoid that route if you can.Heading down south to London, it seems like the A13 is the place to avoid today, as there are reports of an accident at the junction with the A406 North Circular Road. And for those of you in Bristol, watch out for delays on the M5 near Junction 19, as there is a lane closure causing some slow traffic.In Cardiff, there are reports of an overturned lorry on the A48 causing disruptions, so steer clear of that area if possible. And finally, up in Edinburgh, there are delays on the M8 near Junction 1 due to an earlier breakdown - so expect some queues there.That's all for now, folks. Stay safe out there and try not to let the traffic jams get you down. Happy travels!
