Moortown roundabout is at the junction of the A61 with three other roads. It is a complicated junction, close to the Moor Allerton roundabout where the A61 meets the ring road, and until recently was regarded as a barrier to active travel. See Image for a view from several years ago. Major investment by the city council in 2019/20 has provided safe cycle lanes and pedestrian/cycle crossings (toucans) throughout the double junction. But I still found it confusing the first time I tried to use the cycle lanes.
