The scene in Gladstone Road at Peel Street during the noon rush. Density of traffic is sometimes so great that officers on point duty in Feel Street at Gladstone Road and Palmerston Road have to be right on the job to avoid backing up of vehicles across intersections.

Pedestrian in picture, in front of Traffic Officer Boyle, is rightly waiting on central island of crossing for an opportunity to continue.
