London Congestion charge spreads westward in 2007

"Colum Mylod" wrote in message ... The smart way to reduce congestion (not that this expansion has it, 5% of the area at most has congestion) is to close off zones and reduce flow. Classic example Hammersmith bridge. Close it and traffic "evaporates". Er... not quite. I remember a miserable afternoon spent trying to get from Barnes to Hanwell. It should have been a doddle using Hammersmith Bridge, but it was then closed for repairs (is it still closed, or closed again?). It's open, and has been IIRC for at least 4 years. Using Chiswick Bridge (the westerly nexus of the North and South Circular Roads) ... Those two roads actually meet at Chiswick Roundabout, and the South Circular Road crosses the river via Kew Bridge. Chiswick Bridge carries the A316, the link to the M3. -- Richard J.
