I work in Skem. This is the sight that greeted me on half mile island as I nipped out to their local shopping centre, the Concourse, yesterday lunchtime.
The artic had taken out a lamp post.
I hope the driver is alright, I haven't heard anything.
Skem has no traffic lights but around 30 roundabouts instead, the idea being to keep the traffic more free flowing, rather like Milton Keynes.
The half mile roundy is Europe's biggest roundabout, i'm told the bloke who designed Skem committed suicide - don't know if that's true or Skem had anything to do with his decision?

Lots of grass verges there but lack of pavements make it a joggers nightmare.
