It was built at the junction of the A585, the B5268 Fleetwood Road South and Norcross Lane.
It is one of five roundabouts on Amounderness Way, the others being (from the southeast to the northwest): the Victoria Road Roundabout, between Thornton and Cleveleys; and three in Fleetwood, shortly before the road's northern terminus.

Despite this, Carnell, the contractors who carried out the project, were shortlisted for Team of the Year at the national Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation Awards.
[2] The project increased the size of the roundabout, including widening its approaches, as well as adding traffic lights.
