[Talk-gb-westmidlands] Cul-de-sac with turning circle

[Brian Prangle]

Hi Andy.

Looks OK to me. Where there is a single piece of circular tarmac like this
I use turning circle.Where there is a tree or patch of grass in the centre
then  a circular way. If  a Y-shaped hammerhead I add an extra way in the
shape of the Y.

Regards

Briab
