Surprisingly not London, but Brussels! Edinburgh is 5th, just behind london. Not surprising with the damn tram works in the city centre recently

Brussels is Europe's most congested city, according to a new survey by sat-nav manufacturer TomTom.
Using speed data captured by its sat-navs, TomTom says drivers in Brussels face congestion on 37.7 per cent of its roads.
TomTom defines congestion as when drivers have to travel at 70 per cent or less of the speed limit, and only analysed date from cities with a population of 500,000 or more.
London was fourth in the poll, with congestion on 34.7 per cent of routes.
Edinburgh was fifth on 34.5 per cent.
