Traffic Congestion, Motorway
Bury South MP David Sumberg helpfully suggests, ". . . several options are under investigation to deal with traffic congestion. There is the possibility of widening the existing M62 to create a fourlane highway (and) closing off some of the motorway junctions to prevent traffic getting on. . . in the first place."
Of course. The same incisive thinking could be applied to prevent overcrowding on the London Underground; queues at supermarket checkouts; patients clogging up hospitals; unhappy mourners at funerals; drunkeness in pubs, overeating in restaurants and so ad infinitum.
Just don't let anyone in, in the first place. And don't forget over-crowding in the House of Commons.
