Restricted traffic access will cause delays for Eid (PR 1073)

Traffic restrictions will be in place this weekend as hundreds of people visit Southall to celebrate Eid ul-Fitr, which marks the end of Ramadan. 

Police will close some roads and only be allowing residents access.  Residents and businesses will be required to show ID to gain access.  The restrictions will not apply to emergency vehicles or public transport.
