Another roundabout is coming to London - and shovels will be in the ground today.

When completed, the roundabout will be at the intersection of Oxford Street West, and Gideon Drive – however, the work will require the closure of Gideon Drive and Kains Road at Oxford Street West to facilitate the construction.

Workers will construct a temporary bypass road along Oxford Street West, which can be maintained for the majority of the project’s construction.

Meanwhile, a detour will be in place, and sidewalks will also be redirected. Transit is not expected to be affected.

The project will continue well into next year.
