Description: The Old Market Roundabout in Bristol, England, photographed from a tethered passenger balloon at 500 feet. Note that although the picture caption in the article calls this a Traffic Circle, in Bristol (and the rest of England as far as I know) they are called Roundabouts. Points of interest: It is illegal for vehicles to stop on the yellow hatched areas. All entrances to this roundabout have traffic lights. A road passes beneath the roundabout (with the red motorcycle on it). The centre part has gardens. To help pedestrians cross this roundabout, there is a bridge in the middle, and subways. The image shows not provision here for people who use a bicycle. At bottom left is the tall block of the Marriott Hotel.
