The trouble is the council seems to have taken the "green" part too far... you can't see traffic coming at you around the roundabout until they round the last bend due to masses of tall greenery planted inside the roundabout circle.

And now they've started putting traffic lights on roundabouts!!
They do that deliberately to ensure people slow down when approaching...
