Traffic.
London has great traffic problems. Traffic is very busy in London. It means that there are very many buses, motor-cars, trams in the greets of London. So people get impatient as they sit in their cars in a line of traffic waiting, waiting.
Really the best thing to do is to travel by the underground - a network of fast-moving electric trains which take you quickly from one part of London to another part. The London underground is the oldest in the world. The first line was opened in 1870. It was like a tube, that's why it was called the Tube. English people call the old lines the Tube, the new lines the Underground.
One can see the word "Underground" across a large circle. It shows you where the stations are. The old Tube runs across the centre. It has got many stations. The London Underground is long. It is about 300 kilometres long and it has got almost 300 underground stations. Some of them are closed on Sundays. The other stations are closed on Saturdays and Sundays. Many stations of the London Underground have got "Car Park ".The price of tickets is not low. It depends on the distance. There are comfortable seats in the carriages at the underground. The walls are white or grey. There are a lot of advertisments everywhere in the Underground in London.You can see escalators and also lifts at some stations. Only half of the Undergroung trains in London go under ground, new lines that connect London with the country go over ground.
