Britannia Roundabout

The Britannia Roundabout is an infamous roundabout intersection near the city centre of Adelaide. Many minor accidents have occurred over the years at this traffic black spot.[1].

The five roads in clockwise order are Fullarton Road (to the north), Kensington Road to the east, Fullarton Road (to the south), Wakefield Road (to the west) and Dequetteville Terrace (to the northwest). All five roads are two lanes incoming.

Drivers travelling in a south easterly direction on Dequetteville Terrace face difficulty at the intersection because Wakefield Road traffic comes from well over their right shoulder. The angle is less than 45 degrees, a hairpin used on the Adelaide Street Circuit, the temporary motor racing track.

There have been persistent calls for the intersection to be replaced.
