With all the developments on and around 466a the traffic is only going to get worse.
For some reason Villagers don't tighten up, at lights. They leave a car length or two between themselves and the car in front of them which leaves the last cars sitting out in the traffic lane. If they would tighten up, they wouldn't be leaving people in the traffic lane. It's really scary on 301, turning left onto 462.
