The real nasty intersection is the on-ramps to the FL Turnpike from 470. Very tricky, especially at night, with little to prevent someone from entering the exit.

I am 99% sure this new circle is more toward 301 west of Marsh Bend trail not toward the turnpike or at Marsh Bend trail and Central Parkway.

They’ll fix it soon enough. Pay attention and be careful.

Alas, no. Not near 301 at all.

I was down there yesterday. Unless I missed something, it didn’t look like the circle was at the intersection of 470 and Marsh Bend Trail.

On second look, I think you may be correct, very poor communication from Sumter County...

The drawing looks like the one South of the prison, which makes no sense? They may have posted the wrong drawing.

You'll notice I did NOT said NEAR 301.

more toward 301 west of Marsh Bend trail

And I would say that west of Marsh Bend trail is more toward 301 than it is toward the turnpike.

Hmm, could be. It’s the only place the geometry matches the renderings.
