Not only is Letchworth the world’s first Garden City, but it is also home to the UK’s first roundabout.

Hidden in the depths of the tree-lined streets of Broadway, you’ll find the first ​‘gyratory traffic flow system’ built in the UK, here in Letchworth Garden City.

Dating back from circa 1909, town architects Barry Parker and Raymond Unwin introduced this now common road junction to this country as part of the master plan for the Garden City.

A trip to Letchworth isn’t complete until you’ve navigated your way to and around it!
