Even in the morning rush hour the Billet Road/Blackhorse Lane route

I've certainly seen that happen - traffic lights pack up , traffic goes
a lot quicker. Of course there's no such thing as a free lunch - the people
who suffer are pedestrians who now find it almost impossible to cross and cars
coming in from side roads.
