Traffic jams up 17% in first six months
Traffic jams in the first half of this year were 17.3% up on a year earlier says the traffic information service VID.
The first-half rise is the sharpest in five years and is probably due to heavy rain during the period as well as autonomous growth, says the VID. Traffic jams are measured by multiplying the length of stationery or slow moving traffic by the duration of the jam.
