On the morning of Saturday 8th December 1990, a heavy localised snowfall accompanied by strong winds caused chaos on the roads in the area. Here, in the afternoon, cars are jammed in the left carriageway, near the junction with Winsford Avenue. Other vehicles are attempting to keep moving by taking the right hand carriageway to get to the junction.
