The escort, which is taking place for security reasons, will require traffic to be temporarily held at several points along the route. Authorities have released the full route and projected timings of the escort to help drivers plan their journeys and minimize delays. The escort will start on the M5, progressing onto the A417, with intermittent stops causing hold-ups on these busy roadways.
