It took them 5 weeks instead of the 2 weeks they told us it would BUT, the new roundabout is open.

I just feel sorry for the folks whose driveway access/egress is smack-bang on the roundabout. Don’t think I’ve ever seen that kind of traffic arrangement before.

There’s a couple of those on Langdon Ave in Wanniassa. Must be difficult, really. You couldn’t even back in because someone’s likely to drive into the roundabout behind you.

The original road closure notice was for approx 4 weeks – re-opening on 7 May. That was then extended by one week to 14/5 – the day it re-opened…

Oh, I dunno. It’s been pretty quiet at work without the traffic ripping past.

And the notification we got was that it would take 4-5 weeks.
