    How’d they get rid of the fucking cabbies? They were most of the car traffic round Bank from what I remember.

    They used to do rolling honking protests round the whole town about every least little thing, especially anything questioning their god given rights to pump half-combusted diesel down everyone else’s throats.

      London is a city and the capital of the United Kingdom. :-p

      The streets at the crossing are probably closed for cars and trucks.

          It’s the City of London (a small area within London), near the Bank Station. That area is designated as Ultra-Low Emission Zone (ULEZ). Cars other than the service kind (cabs, buses, lorries) would need to pay a high charge to go in. So effective no cars go in there usually.
