Navigating Bow roundabout/flyover

...Junctions like Bow were designed when planners thought that London should be penetrated by urban motorways and that all the future would be car traffic. It is now completely out of its time and requires that radical redesign. ...

Very good point.

As an aside, you can see those plans reflected in some buildings in areas where the motorways were supposed to be - Moorlands Estate in Brixton, for example. If you have ever gone down Coldharbour Lane, which was going to be part of the motorway, you'll notice this monstrosity of a building. Huge walls, very few and small windows on the north side (back) of the building.

back on topic, let's hope they get a redesign done, and right!
