Re: Congestion is about work not transport

"A shame that most do not have much choice - other than not to take a 9 to 5 job. "

I wonder how many 9-5 jobs actually need to be 9-5? I don't mean multiple companies suddenly deciding to switch to an 8-4 or 10-6 day, but individuals within companies choosing their working hours within the restrictions of the business and not actual flexi-time, coming and going as they please. I mean actual structured 7-8 hour days with fixed start and end times between 6-11am to 3-7pm. The business would be open for longer and I'm sure most departments could operate with fewer staff at the start and end of the new "longer" day.
