The junction of Whitaker Road (left) with Winsford Avenue after an overnight snowfall of 8-10cm. Main roads have been gritted and the bus has successfully negotiated both up and back down Winsford Avenue. The block on the far side of Whitaker Road is phase 1 of the Allesley Park neighbourhood centre which opened in 2011. The new centre currently houses a library, replacing a mobile service, and a medical centre, moved from the block which stood at the corner and was recently demolished, hence the rubble at the corner. A similar view in worse snow in 1990 shows the former medical centre: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1073466 . Street lighting and bus stops have also altered in the intervening years.
