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?


This looks like 1960s car insanity to me, likely to generate a lot more
traffic.


It'll reduce jams on the M25 though! ;-)
