I used the Westway in both directions yesterday and noticed no

In fact the only change I saw was in the designation and numbering

colour.


What is your evidence that there has been any such diminuation? Is
there any point to your ranting other than to poitlessly and
unjustifiably castigate Livingstone?


Have you seen the former M41 (with nearly half the road space
snaffled for other purposes)?


I know of no road, either now nor previously, designated as the "M41".


It's the A3220 West Cross Route at Shepherd's Bush. It's been reduced from
three to two lanes in each direction, so "nearly half" is an exaggeration.
It doesn't seem to have affected capacity or journey times, which depend on
the roundabouts at each end.
