Those close to a busy Nottinghamshire roundabout have shared what life is like living and working just a few metres away from a "noisy" island with sometimes "crazy" traffic. Bramcote Island is a popular and well-used route by commuters throughout the county.
Those travelling between the city centre and the M1 and Derby frequent the roundabout, which is usually busy with cars, buses and lorries throughout the day and night. But for those who have set up home next to the busy spot, the noise, pollution and traffic can sometimes be overwhelming.
Ann Hall, who lives on the A52 next to Bramcote Island, said: "It's very noisy and dirty here, but the double glazing helps in the house. The back garden is also very noisy."
