I live close to the London 2012 Olympics site. As a community representative, I've just been to a meeeting and presentation by the local Council about their plans for dealing with the huge number of visitors expected, and the logistics of transport, moving traffic around the area etc during the Games. All interesting stuff but one thing is for sure, as a resident in the area, it's going to be extremely difficult to get around with all the swarms of Olympic visitors. I had a property company contact me recently asking if I wanted to rent out my house for the duration, because of the difficulties visitors will have in finding accommodation; not to mention premium hotel prices.
