I live in Leyton about two miles away and I can assure you that Tfl have
ruined the road system in Stratford. There are traffic lights every 25
yards and conflicting traffic flows have been re-introduced. (About 40
years ago a one way gyratory system was introduced to eliminate
conflicting traffic movement and smooth traffic flow.)

The one way system was introduced when Stratford was the main route to
the A11 and A12. It became unnecessary when the new A12 opened.
