Travel delays and disruptions . Finding alternative routes and getting the latest news on delays and disruptions can save you time and effort when you're on the move.

We've offered traffic information on the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ's mobile site for several years but we've just launched a new and improved version.

You can search by road, postcode or town name to find the information that matters to you. You can sort the results by time or severity of delay, and find out if an earlier accident or traffic jam has cleared.

Most of us have journeys that we take frequently, so we've introduced the ability to personalise the service by creating a favourites list which gives swift access to the information you want in just one click.

For the first time, we're also offering public transport information. Whether you need updates on rail, ferries, air travel or the London Underground, the new service helps you find out what might affect your journey, so you can be prepared.

Hopefully your travel plans will go as smoothly as possible, but if you want to keep an eye on potential disruptions to your journey, please try our new service.

To use the service:

- click on the Travel news link on our mobile homepage (www.bbc.co.uk/mobile)
- or type the address www.bbc.co.uk/mobile/travelnews straight into your mobile phone
- or text the word TRAVEL to 81010 to receive a direct link (texts to the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ cost 10-15p).
