Description: This is an aerial view of the extensions to Clifton Bridge, part of the city's outer ring road improvements. Delays to the completion of the complex were caused by, amongst other things, the builders strike. A three level interchange is shown in the foreground. Crossing the river is the original bridge, on the left of which is the new span with three lanes for southbound traffic and a single lane for ring road traffic coming into the city. The old bridge was to be a two-lane carriageway for northbound traffic. (information from an article which appeared in the Nottingham Evening Post on 5 June 1972)
