Traffic chaos reigns in Canterbury as Christmas shoppers flock to the city.
Bus operator Stagecoach has warned all three park and ride services into the city are suffering delays.
The traffic is also having a knock-on effect for other Stagecoach services - with buses to Whitstable and Chartham running late.
The epicentre of the traffic woes is at Riding Gate Roundabout, where shoppers are trying to get across onto Watling Street.
Key routes into the city through Wincheap and Sturry are also more snarled up than usual.
Motorists heading through Canterbury for purposes other than festive shopping should allow for extra journey times.
KentOnline revealed earlier this year how plans for a redesign of the ring-road could be explored.
