Coventry Street is a short London street, within the City of Westminster, running from Piccadilly Circus to Leicester Square. The street is the main conduit between Piccadilly Circus and Leicester Square and at the weekend up to 150,000 people walk from one to another along the street. Buses travelling south from Regent Street or west along Shaftesbury Avenue inevitably pass along the top of the street, where it meets The Haymarket, with the consequence that the street can be heavily congested.
