Affected location: Newham and Waltham Forest

Illustrative image: Here we are on a very busy road, (used to be London Transport 308 Route, with the former Clay's Lane estate where the earth mountain is in the background) linking stratford with the A12 - hence heavy coach traffic. No signs banning photography as was the norm in some public parts of Communist states. Off to the left the 2012 Olympic park.
