Went through there Sunday night on the bus at about 11pm and traffic
was moving pretty freely along the new routes shown on the link above.
However, this morning the traffic reports said that traffic was a
nightmare and the A11 was queuing back to Bow Road and the A13 back to
Limehouse. I wonder if this will get any better as drivers get used to
the layout or whether the powers that be have created a monster.

It's been pretty chaotic a few times in the last couple of days (I work
overlooking the junction). The main problem is bad driving - drivers turning
out of Mansell Street without ensuring that they are clear into Whitechapel
High Street and therefore blocking traffic heading into the City! There have
been a few frayed tempers and ensemble hooting. ;-)
