WGMG is the morning traffic congestion between Metford / Thornton and Sandgate. It took me 10 mins to ride to Metford from my place and then another 40mins to Hexham - and another 20 mins to get from Hexam to Sandgate. Pretty much stayed in 1st gear from Thornton to Hexam, and crept into 2nd or third briefly until it finally cleared up just after the Sandgate turn off to the Uni.

Peoples inability to merge is also a big problem but mostly I'm guessing that people being forced away from public transport and back to their cars is the main issue.

If a horse performed like this governments Roads Minister you would shoot it on the spot.
