A quiet scene at 11:24 on this New Year's morning, the usually busy Christchurch Road very quiet with not even a bus in sight (they were running an hourly service during the daytime today). The roadway along here has been redesigned in the last year or so, with parking spaces marked as a sort of hybrid between the pavement and road, rather than the previous more traditional white dotted lines along the wider carriageways. This turned out to be the best of today's weather, with rain lasting from lunchtime right into the late evening.
