On "You And Yours" today, they had a report about foreign visitors
coming for the Olympics. Apparently hotel bookings so far are much
lower than anticipated and it now looks as if the numbers coming
will be way, way lower than predicted. This of course will be good
news for people travelling by public transport but it will not reduce
the consequences of Olympic lanes.

Yes, it will. If (and I doubt this) there are fewer visitors, there
will be less traffic in the general traffic lanes, hence less congestion.
