https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-59559863London has become the world's most congested city, new analysis shows.
Drivers in the capital will lose an average of 148 hours stuck in jams across the whole of 2021, according to traffic information supplier Inrix.
That is just 1% down on pre-coronavirus pandemic levels, a much smaller decline than many other major cities.
Paris was second in the global ranking for most congestion (140 hours lost), followed by Brussels (134), Moscow (108) and New York (102).
Last year, London was ranked only the 16th most congested city.
Across the UK as a whole, drivers will waste an average of 73 hours in traffic this year.
That is up 36 hours from 2020, but down 42 hours compared with pre-Covid 2019.
