What’s happening in Greater London

Live traffic for London's 32 boroughs and the City: the M25 and the motorways that feed it (M1, M4, M11), the A406 North Circular, the A13 and the A40, plus Transport for London's own disruption updates. ULEZ and the Blackwall and Silvertown tunnel charges catch drivers out (see below), and Heathrow, Wembley and The O2 all have busy approaches.
