Most of the works are done at Arnage. This road is used by 10000 cars a day and is accident-prone. They had to purchase land and this has delayed the works. One M€ are necessary to increase users security. A round-about will keep the place safer. The old turn will be kept as it is. New Mounds will be build for an exceptional view.

Maybe a simple removable traffic light installation would have been a much cheaper solution there?

Looks like a lot of tarmac is being laid down as well...
Do you know if the gravel that is being into the trap will be different from the kind in Dunlop, the Mulsanne chicanes and Mulsanne corner itself? Seemed the sharp type of rocks that are used in all of those traps were the cause of many, many punctures over the years, any news on possible replacement of that?
