Ayup, but they had no Moses virus.They just took their time to screw it up. You can read all about the failed urban motorways in London here, apart from one particularly crazy example, which is here. I say it's crazy, but without it, the inner ends of the Westway (A40/A40(M)/M40), the Eastway (A12/M11/M12/roadgeek argument), the M1, and the Camden Town By-Pass made absolutely no sense. Bizarrely, one of the few bits that did get built was the section of the Westway that drops everyone on The French arguably got it vaguely right: they built their Perifreak and didn't smash up central Paris.
