“It has been dubbed Britain’s ‘most woke’ roundabout because drivers must give priority to pedestrians, then cyclists, and then other cars and lorries before continuing on themselves. Locals have pointed out the priority for cyclists and pedestrians is unnecessary as only cars and lorries regularly use the Boundary Way route.”

    This looks like a perfectly ordinary round about to me, except for them driving on the left. It doesn’t have multiple car lanes.

    The round abouts with multiple car lanes are indeed confusing to some people, and the ones I’ve seen all have the bicycle lanes offset to make crossings further from the center or dug out under the road.

      Oh, not multiple car lanes, no. Just the pedestrian/bike throughway, I guarantee, will have a nonzero amount of drivers on it. Hence why I put lanes in quotes.
