"due to landscape planting" Huh? The landscaping is hanging over lanes?

If you mean because of the landscaping in the circle, you're incorrect. All the 2-lane entries in the aerial photo have 2-lanes circulating and none of the exits are one-lane.
If you’re looking at the other side of a modern roundabout when you’re entering, you’re driving unsafely. Drivers entering a modern roundabout should first look for pedestrians, then watch for other motorists approaching their entry, and then watch for pedestrians when exiting. The motorist on the other side of the circle won’t get to you for 5 or ten seconds. Obscured views across the central island is one of the safety features.
