More Information:		Directgov has launched a FREE 'Travel News' app for iPhones. Go to the App Store and search for 'Travel News' to install the Directgov app which uses official department of Transport data and covers England Scotland and Wales. Using your current location, or by entering a region of your choice, you can use the app to search for travel news on trains, roads, tubes, ferries and trams. You can get detailed information about the type of delay, areas affected, incident description and severity, complete with Google maps. Check before you leave to avoid speed restrictions, road closures, engineering works, sailing cancellations, replacement bus services, roadworks, accidents, bridge and tunnel closures, contra flows, diversions and more. At present this app is only available for iPhones. A version for Android phones is expected to be launched shortly.
