This Welsh town reportedly has the world's highest concentration of roundabouts

A Welsh man said he contacted Guinness World Records to tell them his town has the world's highest concentration of roundabouts.

Brian Dougal said he discovered that Milton Keynes held the record for highest number of roundabouts per square kilometer, with an average 1.46 of the circular intersections per every 1 kilometer (0.62 miles).

Dougal suspected that Cwmbran might beat that record so he did some analysis and found it actually has an average 2.75 roundabouts per square kilometer, beating the previous record by some distance.

"Driving around in circles in our town can be a headache. But at least we can enjoy getting dizzy knowing that there is nowhere else in the world like Cwmbran," Dougal said.
