This road comprises a roundabout, which leads to another road moving eastward, intersecting a railway line near a gas station.&nbsp; As per the proposed plan, the roundabout would be shifted slightly south, and the airfield would be replaced by an industrial estate, connected by a new road leading directly east to the railway.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>______<\/strong>, a new roundabout would be constructed along the railway near the same gas station. Towards the easternmost part of the town, there is presently a town centre and a built-up area surrounding the Ring Road, which would remain unchanged in the future. The proposed additions include a new road (A4) starting from the town centre, running along the southern edge of the town, and connecting with A2 in the west.
