This comment amused me too, my immediate thought was 'it is all the people driving from Milton to north Cambridge who could/should be walking/cycling/using the bus who are causing the traffic jam in the first place' >From my perspective I think that very few people travelling from their home to the same office every day should need to use a car. These 'same journey every day' journeys are precisely the ones that public transport should serve. Having worked for a Finnish company for a while and had the joy of using Helsinki's public transport I now know what can be achieved. Andi
