Default Ludgate Hill/St Paul's

Over 10 minutes on the number 17 bus tonight, to crawl from Ludgate Circus
to that ludicrous zebra crossing at St Paul's.

Is this something Boris can resolve, or does it fall within the
responsibilities of the old farts of the City of London?

Think you'll find its the City of London. Taxi drivers have a moan about
the City fathers as we're not allowed to use most of the bus lanes in
the City but can do so in the Greater London area.

I agree that a light controlled crossing would make the traffic flow a
lot better there, although there had been a major road closure in the
east end and there may have been extra traffic in the area.
