Council workers attempting to clear the drains on the A81, Maryhill Road, after the road had flooded. This photograph was taken about 24 hours after the road had flooded due to a torrential downpour which affected a wide area of northwest Glasgow, Bearsden and Milngavie. Most of the other floods on other roads had drained away, but this one was obviously causing a problem. Vehicles heading for Glasgow were having to go through several inches of water and many were driving half on the central reservation of the dual carriageway.
