Bypasses revolutionary garrison, capturing leader of division (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
ring roads
'bypasses' is the definition.
('ring road' can be a synonym of 'bypass')
'revolutionary garrison capturing leader of division' is the wordplay.
'revolutionary' is an anagram indicator.
'capturing' is an insertion indicator.
'leader of' indicates taking the first letters.
The first letter of 'division' is 'd'.
'garrison' with letters rearranged gives 'ringroas'.
'ringroas' placed around 'd' is 'RING-ROADS'.
