Boris Johnson, Olympic traffic lanes

Boris Johnson, London’s new Liberal mayor, has planned special traffic lanes to speed competitors and officials to the various Olympic venues. My own event, trap shooting, will be held at the snooty Royal Artillery Barracks in Greenwich. Like the vast majority of us lead slingers, I live in Surrey which means blocking off vast swathes of the M25 and A2 just to get us there. Why can’t the competition be held at the Surrey home of shooting in Wisley which will only involve local closures of the A3?
