BBC TravelAs I'm sure you will have noticed, it's now past 16:00, so that means we're more or less in the evening rush hour.
Let's take a look around Yorkshire at some of the points you might encounter some slow-moving traffic:

- Queues on the A6133 Park Road in both directions in Barnsley at the A61 Sheffield Road junction
- Heavy traffic on A647 Leeds Road in both directions in Bradford between the Hawthorn Street junction and the A650 Shipley Airedale Road junction
- And all is looking fine in Leeds at the moment
- There's heavy traffic on the A64 Seamer Road in both directions in Scarborough at the B1427 Queen Margaret's Road junction
- In York there's slow traffic on the A1237 York Outer Ring Road in both directions at Clifton Moor
