Operations postponed at John Radcliffe Hospital

Some operations have had to be postponed at Oxford's John Radcliffe Hospital over the weekend and on Monday because of the weather.

Paul Brennan, director of clinical services at Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust, said: "We are very sorry to have to do this but we are experiencing very high levels of patients needing emergency admissions at the moment, and we need to prioritise.

"We would continue to encourage patients who need to come to our hospitals over the coming days for planned appointments and procedures to attend, unless they have heard otherwise from us, provided they can reach us safely."

Conditions turning treacherous and 'dangerous' in Caversham

Road conditions are turning treacherous in Reading as snow continues to fall, with Caversham seemingly the worst affected.

Thames Valley Police said the area has become "dangerous to drive around" with the hills in and out becoming very slippery.

Reading Buses has confirmed one of its vehicles is stuck on St Anne's Road, and in Caversham Heights residents say cars are skidding all over the place and into walls.

An accident has closed the A4155 by the Flowing Spring pub and Oakley Road in Sonning Common has become particularly difficult to drive on.

Police are warning people not to drive unless absolutely essential.
