Paxton Green roundabout ideas

images  This weeks Local Transport Today  has an interesting article about Dutch style roundabouts called a turbo roundabouts.

Struck me as a possible model for Paxton Green.

You can see a 70second video of the concept here:

Do you think it would help solve the problems at this intersection?
