An estimated 2.6 million car journeys were expected to be made on Good Friday, creating significant congestion around the M25 and roads in the southwest and southeast.
Drivers were warned that journeys could take twice as long on some routes, with queues of 15 to 20 miles causing significant delays.
Around 14 million trips by road could be made over the weekend, generating an estimated 3.2 billion for the economy.
Ferry services at Dover were running with delays due to strong winds in the Channel, causing disruptions after Storm Nelson.
