A giant free-standing advertising billboard has been turning heads after it was suddenly erected on the dual carriageway behind Cabot Circus.
The 35ft high digital screen has been placed right in the middle of the pavement, facing motorists heading up Temple Way towards the Bond Street/M32 junction, just before they pass under the footbridge to the Cabot Circus car park. The giant digital screen is held up by one triangular pillar, and is right in the middle of the pavement, although there is still enough room for pedestrians, pushchairs and wheelchairs to get past on either side.
Bristol Live can reveal that the ad agency responsible, JCDecaux, originally asked for permission to put up more of the huge digital ad boards, in the central reservation of Temple Way and round the corner of Cabot Circus, on Bond Street.
