About M1 Traffic

M1 Traffic is a free, independent website dedicated to the M1 motorway — bringing together the latest M1 traffic news, reports, roadworks and delays in one clear, easy-to-use place. It’s part of the UK Traffic News network, a family of road-specific sites that help drivers across the country check their route before they set off.

Helping M1 drivers since 2011

We’ve been helping drivers find M1 news and updates since 2011, and today M1 Traffic is used by thousands of drivers every week. Our aim has always stayed the same: clear, free, up-to-date M1 information without the clutter, so you can see what’s happening on your route at a glance.

Travelling on the M25 too?

The M1 connects with the M25 London orbital motorway at Junction 6a, so many M1 journeys involve the M25 as well. If your route uses the M25, our sister site M25 Traffic features the latest M25 traffic news and updates in exactly the same easy format — well worth a look before you travel.

Find the latest M1 traffic reports

You can find all the latest M1 traffic reports quickly and easily on our Latest M1 Traffic News page — search by junction number and direction of travel to focus on the stretch you’re driving.
