New Roundabout on Valley Drive, near Singlewell - Geograph - 1110725.jpg
New Roundabout on Valley Drive, near Singlewell
This roundabout has been created since the re-positioning and widening of the A2 dual carriageway, due to the opening of the nearby (about 4 miles up the A2) Ebbsfleet Station on the Channel Tunnel Rail Link. This gives commuters quicker times into London. The road heading right (Valley Drive) heads into Gravesend. The road on the left is the new on-ramp to A2 heading towards Medway Towns. The road the other side of the roundabout leads to another roundabout. These have all been opened since June 2008.

Not just an old sign, but a splendid item of street furniture. Note the distances to London and Rochester: this was a major through-route once.
