The most notable thing about this road is the three enormous wind baffles stretched across the carriageway. They were erected in 2017 to reduce the 'wind tunnel' effect around the Bridgewater Place building following a fatal accident in which a pedestrian was crushed when a lorry blew over in 2011.
