Title: Yet another roundabout
Post by: Drax on 03 May, 2022, 10:12:31 pm

This one is going to be at Bazar Oriental / Hyper Ocio and leading off right towards the new road to Taberno.
I wonder what sort of statues we can look forward to?

This mayor certainly loves his roundabouts... what next, suicide corner perhaps?

Suicide corner needs one most but there is no room

I was almost blindsided there by a car cutting straight across me on that corner on tuesday.  It could do with something there - traffic lights maybe?  The car that cut across me had a Goldcar sticker in the back window, so a Hire car.
New road to Taberno?  New to me...  When?

The new road is almost completed, it runs from the goats milk processing plant up and over to the old disco (cutting the road from Albox to Aljambra / Limaria) and shoots off to the Taberno road coming out near the Cemetery.

It was planned as a bypass for the town centre but I don't think many use it, most seem stuck in their ways: up Lepanto, Right at Suicide Corner, Left and passing the School / Health Centre.

All that's missing is from Bazar Oriental to the milk place although that's a reasonably good road and with signposts at the roundabout it might get used more.
