They did it all along the eastern stretch of the 406 , I can't see why they can't do the same on the western stretch. B2003 |

Whatever the reason it needs to be done. Having looked at the plans I can't see how the mildly updated layout is going to make the slightest difference to the morning jams. At the very least they could have put finchley road in a bridge over the 406 since that would have got rid of one set of traffic lights on the 406. B2003 |
