In the UK, the impact of all London’s traffic hotspots - and the potential cost to drivers - is 15 times higher than that of the second ranked city, Edinburgh. Glasgow and Birmingham follow, with Manchester, Bristol, Leeds, Cardiff, Bradford and Belfast rounding out the top ten.

Steve Gooding, RAC Foundation director, said: “The cost of congestion isn’t just measured in pounds and pence.

"There is also a human price to pay, both in terms of missed appointments - anything from job interviews to family gatherings - and the impact of poor air quality.

Interesting opening gambit as to what the MAIN cause of the congestion is.

Overpopulation will kill this country or any other.

The capital will suffer the most.

That's the way I'm thinking Hrolf.

Not only the additional people themselves are causing most of the congestion as they move around, but the additional HGV lorries full of their imported goods/food that they crave from their homelands.

I sit at that bloody Blackwall Tunnel every morning, it's getting beyond a joke.

We need a good war to thin the population out, so that I can get to work on time !

It's a nightmare at the moment
Luckily I only travel through it once a week,tower Bridge being closed has added big time.

A new tax to force the riff raff off the road would do the job.

Just wait until Sharia Law comes in - that'll take all the women drivers off the road - plenty of space then.....

 


A stairway to Heaven and a Highway to Hell give some indication of expected traffic numbers
