Abstract
LEAD levels in blood are generally found to be higher in city dwellers than in those living in the country1–6. This difference has been linked to the increased background levels of lead, which result to a large extent from the emission of lead in motor car exhaust gases. In Birmingham, the opening of the M6–A38(M) interchange provided an opportunity to test this hypothesis by studying the effect of an increase in traffic density on the concentration of lead in the blood of those living close to the interchange.
