No room to move: It’s a bumper-to -bumper crawl in Jalan Air Itam as Penangites throng the Air Itam Market for last-minute purchases. - ZHAFARAN NASIB / The Star

TRAFFIC in Jalan Air Itam came to a crawl and was chronic especially near the market area as people went shopping for their Chinese New Year needs and reunion gathering.
