Ok, well having just ridiculed using the Northern section of the inner
ring road, if a cabbie's recommending it I might have to eat my words!
So is it likely to be a pretty clear run around 5pm on a Sunday, all the
way from Marylebone to Whitechapel, then?

Depends. So9metimes it can be very easy, other times it is very busy. It
all depends upon what is happening with road works. Again I have the
advantage of being able to use the bus lanes.


Don't forget that on actual Sunday evenings everyone can use most of
the bus lanes, just check the blue signs they're mostly Mon-Sat
7am-10am and 4pm-7pm. Lots of drivers forget this and completely
ignore the bus lanes, which allows you a lot of undertaking potential.

But not the M4 bus lane nor the Marylebone Road one, both of which are
24 hours 7 days a week
