They are changing all the traffic lights though aren't they.

Like syncing them all together, so you won't get past one set then get stopped at the next.

Yes, it will be crowded. but then it's crowded most weekends.

To prevent crowding they are doing a number of things, though:

- You will not be able to get to the games via car. This helps pollution (in their sustainable proposal), but also helps congestion on the roads around the olympic park (well, add to the congestion).
- You have to get to the games via Public transport. This means that they can control how many buses/taxis are on the road at any one given point.
- Extra capacity Tubes/DLR, This means that they will be able to cope with extra passengers on the underground and DLR.
- High Speed Trains (The Javelin). They will use the new high-speed south-eastern trains during the games to get passengers from central london to stratford in under 3 minutes.
-Extra boats on the thames to transport passengers.
- Also, they're contemplating shutting many roads in and around London to cope with over capacity pathways and to allow public transport to get to the park quicker.

Hope this helped

I have seen the stadium, and a lot of other bits (velodrome, basketball place etc) progress hugely. Being an Orient fan the way to get there is by driving past it. I must say, the way they have completed it is fantastic. Although the stadium is superb, compared to the Birds Nest one in Chine, I have to say it is somewhat disappointing.

Also, public transport in London will be absolutely free for anyone who has a ticket for the Olympic Games, as long as it is on the date of the event.
