Switchable signs
"Michael Hoffman" wrote in message ... As to why they are used, I guess it's either to divert flows in the peaks to cope with the numbers or because some routes are closed at certain times, e.g. an exit closed after 23:00. Interesting guess. Does anyone know? Correct guess. |

London Bridge currently has diveted flow during the peaks, but I don't know offhand if they're using switchable signs. |

No idea if they're manual or automatic, mind. Neil -- Neil Williams in Milton Keynes, UK When replying please use neil at the above domain 'wensleydale' is a spam trap and is not read. |
