It's incredible, isn't it? They're digging up the local "arterial" (it's too small to really be an arterial route, but it certainly carries that much traffic) to install some fibre (finally!), so it is down to one lane, and you can imagine the jams that have ensued.
The thing is, we're a whole 4 miles out of the city centre, and again, based on the turnings people are taking, I know most of the traffic in the morning is heading into town, and yet no one seems to think that perhaps a bike or bus would reduce the traffic and make the journey quicker for everyone involved.
Obviously none of the people in the cars you are passing are using their bikes that day, but how many of the cyclists on the road would have otherwise used their cars?
