Drivers heading to hugely popular festival this weekend warned of hefty fines for dangerous mistake on the motorway
National Highways has reminded drivers of the potential fines for dangerous behaviour FESTIVAL FINE Drivers heading to hugely popular festival this weekend warned of hefty fines for dangerous mistake on the motorway Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MUSIC lovers excited for this weekend's Creamfields festival have been warned to avoid making a silly mistake on the motorway which could result in a nasty fine. The electronic dance music festival, a four-day event held annually on the August Bank Holiday weekend in Daresbury, Cheshire, is located near Junction 11 of the M56 motorway.

Their warning stems from pedestrians walking on the motorway or vehicles stopping to drop off or pick up passengers - which is illegal and highly dangerous. Offenders who are caught doing this may be fined, with those arriving by car instructed to use designated collection points which are clearly marked off the motorway. To this end, drivers are encouraged to plan ahead and allow extra time for their journeys to avoid congestion, while also following dedicated event signs - rather than relying on sat nav systems which may lead them onto unsuitable roads. For the event, extra police and National Highways traffic officers will be stationed near junction 11 of the M56 to manage traffic and ensure safety. Car parks for the festival site will open at midday on Thursday and close at 2 pm on Monday. Traffic from the north, south and east are urged to use junction 11 of the M56, while traffic from the west should use junction 12. Congestion hotspots include junctions 10, 11 and 12 of the M56 and the M56/M6 interchange at Lymm are expected to be particularly busy. Electronic motorway signs will be used to provide real-time updates on congestion and incidents. Creamfields, which runs from Thursday at 2 pm to Sunday at 11 pm, will have an expected 70,000 attendees.

At the Leeds iteration, held at Bramham Park, around 90,000 attendees are expected and those driving to the event have been warned that roadworks on certain routes, including the M1, A1(M) and A64, could cause delays. Drivers are advised to plan ahead and allow extra time for their journeys, while on-site parking is included for ticketholders - with routes to car parks clearly signposted. Helpfully, a dedicated festival bus will run from Leeds railway station to the site from Wednesday to Monday, with tickets available online. As with Creamfields, National Highways will have extra traffic officers on duty and electronic signs will provide updates on incidents and congestion.

The Chase's Mark Labbett issued warning by co-star after 'ups and downs'
The Chase's Mark Labbett issued warning by co-star after 'ups and downs' EXCLUSIVE: The Chase star Mark Labbett is one of the famous faces hoping to find love on this year's Celebs Go Dating, following his split from Hayley Palmer last year Mark Labbett is best known as The Beast on The Chase (Image: ITV) The Chase's Mark Labbett seems to have had quite the ride on the new series of Celebs Go Dating, according to one of the show's experts Anna Williamson. Following his split from Hayley Palmer last year, the quizmaster is on a mission to find new love with the help of dating experts Anna, Paul C Brunson, and Dr Tara Suwinyattichaiporn. After announcing his break-up, Mark said he'd been living "quietly" in Yorkshire, and embracing life as a singleton. Now ready to step out of his comfort zone and date again, he has put his love life in the hands of the dating gurus. Ahead of his dates being shown on screen, Anna, 44, shared what he was like during the process. She said: "Mark is probably one of the most fascinating celebrities we've ever had. Let's just say, for me, he's an appointment to view. He gives us it all!". Hinting at some clashes during filming, she added: "He has a few ups and downs with us agents, I will throw that out there. Mark is definitely a force to be reckoned with and I think he met his reckoning force in us." Issuing a warning, Anna continued: "Let's just say we don't tolerate any clap back in the agency." Mark Labbett is on a quest to find love on Celebs Go Dating Article continues below The relationship expert emphasised that any confrontations with the celeb daters come from a good place, adding: "We run a tight ship at the agency and as professionals, we will always hold our boundaries. "We are not there to make friends we are there to coach people," she stated, though admitted it was hard not to become "extremely fond" of some of them. The Chase star has openly confessed that he is "terrible" at dating, though has praised the dating experts for the advice and guidance they gave him. He revealed: "Well, I would say I was terrible, but apparently, according to the agents, I did a bit better than that. So I have a rule in life and that is when you chat to an expert, listen to them. Take it on board. And I will blow my own trumpet. "I did listen to them and hopefully, I got a bit better at dating as a result of this." Celebs Go Dating stars Anna Williamson, Paul C Brunson, Dr Tara Suwinyattichaiporn and Tom Read Wilson When asked about the specific guidance he received, he said there were "suggestions of flirting" which "didn't feel natural" to him. "But the major one there was to really listen and take an interest and I have got to say that kind of worked," he further commented to Channel 4. According to The Sun, the quizmaster has been enjoying time with a dating hopeful from the show who he "instantly connected" with. Article continues below A source said the duo have been "getting to know each other away from the cameras" and claimed that 'Mark discovered a lot about himself through the coaching on the series". A spokesperson for Mark declined to comment when approached. Anna Williamson is a relationship expert and Channel 4's Celebs Go Dating Agent, follow here @AnnaWilliamson.
