A year since it opened, the Gedling Access Road continues to split opinions. The £49 million link, across the brow of Gedling, officially opened on March 22 last year with the aim of easing congestion in the village.
Three million vehicles have already travelled on the road, according to Nottinghamshire County Council. But the new 3.8km route, which connects the A612 to Mapperly Plains has not been away from the headlines.
The road was forced to close in January when a pothole opened up in a "big embarassment" for the council. It is pretty safe to say the GAR has divided opinions since it opened.
