Holidaymakers filmed pouring overnight into Cornwall on bank holiday

Holidaymakers were filmed by police streaming into Devon and Cornwall last night.

Falmouth, Penryn and the surrounding areas are expected to be very busy this weekend, with the towns already noticeably busier over the past few days.

In images shared by Devon and Cornwall Police Roads team, motorists could be seen on the M5 "pouring" into the South West.

A spokesperson for Devon and Cornwall Roads Policing Team added:

"It's nearly midnight. Bank Holiday weekend. On the right are thousands of holidaymakers still pouring into Devon & Cornwall on the M5. The northbound lane on the left, practically empty."

Another motorist added:

"A30 nose to tail heading into Cornwall at 7:30 this morning."

Be wary that there maybe travel disruption around the town this weekend, leave plenty of time for your journeys.
