The road that goes in to the cul-de-sac where I live in was closed at one end for 4 months so going anywhere meant I had to go via the North Circular and the traffic was a mess because of the diversion.
now that's reopened they have closed the other road the other side so all the traffic is now down the road near I live so again takes forever to go anywhere.

You get the odd lucky run I got back from Folkstone in just over an hour a few months back.
I saw the local campaign against that Green Lanes cycle lane when I walked down it. I am coming to the conclusion that the Damned Things are a menace. A bit like bicycles themselves, really.
