Here's a chance to see what it is like to negotiate the eagerly-awaited new-look layout in Lower Road, Minster.

The Island's brand new roundabout opened yesterday, replacing the traffic lights at the junction with Barton Hill Drive.

Drivers were able to use it from about 3.30pm.

The majority of the first phase of the Lower Road improvement scheme has now been completed.

Construction started in June and over 21,000 hours have been worked, removing 4,000 cubic metres of soil, bringing in 6,500 tonnes of aggregate and laying 3,800 square metres of asphalt for the new road surface.
