Junction 5 on the M54 is really very odd. Shoehorned into a restricted site and configured with a single roundabout off the line of motorway serving both sets of slip roads and the connecting ordinary roads. In concept, it is similar to toll road exits common in France and the USA, or some very early UK motorway junction designs.
