Default Britains Crap Roads, Answers wanted

Your view is certainly not shared by me, yes she may have buiilt roads,
but look at what happens road building leads to more traffic, this
has been researched.


Perhaps building roads does lead to more traffic - for example, before the
M25 was built, I would be far less likely to travel from Birmingham to Kent,
simply because of the hassle of getting through London.

Surely new roads giving people new possibilities to travel, meet friends and
relatives, and go for days out should be celebrated? After all, that means
our standard of living has increased, surely.
