Gridlock

[tforturton]

According to the radio, Cardiff is at a standstill. Gridlock from Grangetown, up through Pontcanna and Llandaff, Gabalfa, Cathays, Newport Road, etc.
What on earth is going on?

Re: Gridlock

I would hazard a guess at the council blocking off roads, plus putting in cycle lanes for non-existent cyclists

The situation around the Coryton roundabout is particularly stressful - and has been for weeks.

Re: Gridlock

I would guess that it's the volume of traffic causing people in traffic to complain about the amount of traffic .

Surely that would mean that it'd be gridlock every day and certainly not newsworthy enough to start a thread on?

And there's tons of cyclists, the world's changing, get used to it

I saw a load of traffic cops earlier, maybe something nasty has happened.

Cyclists are about abundant as chicken’s teeth

What do you do, stand there and count them? you would have to do that at intervals during the day to get a realistic estimate of how many cyclists are using a cycle lane.

''What do you do, stand there and count them?''

I'm not sure why, but that made me grin

Rogerstone to Tredegar House roundabout was pretty gnarly today too.

Re: Gridlock

Irish Taoiseach, Nicola sturgeon and Michael Gove in Cardiff today - maybe why so many police around, escorts and stuff?

Re: Gridlock

I'm not long got back from Bridgend, Coryton roundabout is chaos, on the slip road off the motorway approaching the roundabout, I was on inside lane, and went up the A470 and over the mountain I'm on a non standard shift pattern at the moment, and no matter what time i leave and come home it's hard work currently.
