GWENT Police issued a driver with a traffic offence report after they were spotted reversing down the off-slip of the M48 Severn Bridge.

Police received the report at around 11.45am on Saturday, June 6. Officers pulled the vehicle over and issued a traffic offence report to the driver.

National Highways said the driver may have been the reason for the day’s lane closures. It had reported that all lanes were closed on the M48 Westbound at Junction 1 due to ‘road management.’
