Re Cambridge crumbling - Give this place a try at 8.30 am in a Car - the gas mains are being patched on a major route from the south and the place comes to a standstill.
This is not the first time - same prob for collapsing sewers and water mains.
Its a great place for a visit for a few days, but take a look behind the Olde England facades and its a different matter sadly. New technology hot-spot yes but that's not the whole story.

I used to live in Cambridge in the 70s. At 08.30 then I could beat any car on my bike from Cyprus Road to the railway station.
