Happened once again last night.
Left home at 18.35.I come in from the north and my favoured rat-run starts by going UP the A470.That was gridlocked. Got off at the Coryton roundabout and tried the route in via Llandaff North. That too was one long tail-back.
Cut across Whitchurch Common to use Western Ave - and once again was immersed in the snarl-up because of the lights by Tesco Extra (what a stupid place to put a s-market and other outlets with one exit onto a major thru route, Cardiff planners).
Spent most of the time in traffic looking at the dash-board clock.
Arrived at CCS, with five minutes to spare, in a right mood.
That was just the start of a rotten night's "entertainment".
And we all know the traffic situation is going to get much worse!
