Plans to transform central London with a 22-mile-long underground
ring road can be revealed today.

Costing £30 billion to construct, it would remove tens of
thousands of cars from the crowded streets above.


What a hare-brained idea! What would the portals do to their localities
and
why would it divert anything from the streets in central London?


They have it it Brussels

It's a nightmare to drive on (as the on/off ramps are pretty short), but it
seems to work at lessening the traffic on the normal streets
