been for a look: cordon has been reduced a fair bit now in all directions (just the middle part of Coventry Street, Great Windmill Street, and Haymarket itself are sealed off now), and traffic seems to be flowing from Piccadilly to Shaftesbury Avenue. Piccadilly Circus tube re-opened, apparently.

most workdays i would walk past the site where the car was left twice.

how's it looking now?

I have to go to a meeting in Piccadilly later on and am bricking it. to be honest I might end up cancelling the whole thing because seeing the whole place looking like a disaster area will scare me rigid.

apart from the block or two that's still cordoned off, pretty normal. wouldn't be surprised if it was re-opened entirely by this evening. the piccadilly end of things seems to be business as usual.

Why are they cordoning off things?

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

because of the attempted car bombs.

I only heard about them yesterday or today or so.
