Im with 4th Exit.

1. Arndale Car Park
2. Up Union Street
3. Up whatever street, come out onto king street.
4. Hyndburn Road.

Doesn't matter how many exits it has .... it is still within the 180 degrees straight across from the Eastgate exit ... making it a left turn and not a right turn.

So if Hyndburn road was the last exit and the others were blocked off would the right hand lane never be used by your 180 degree logic?

Re: Eastgate Roundabout Annoyance

What about from Hyndburn Rd going up Eastgate?
bet theres a difference with that one, ME - I go left lane if I want to keep in the left lane on Eastgate, IE turning left or heading for Burnley Rd, I go in right lane if I'm going up Eastgate and want to go in the right lane on Eastgate, IE going towards Avenue Parade or turning right into Whalley Rd
