OK, I think this must be it and the situation is more complex than I remember. Lanes don't spiral in but on the south side a new lane appears on the inside. The roundabout is 2 lanes in places and 3 in others, just as some of the roads are 2 lanes and other 3. There is also a slip lane on the top left (nw) corner. If you work it out I think it is quite logical and it certainly worked in practice.
This reminds of an Irish joke.
To be consistent with Europe Ireland is going to switch to driving on the right hand side of the road. At midnight on the designated day all the cars will stop and move to the opposite side of the road, just as they did when Sweden changed sides. If that all goes smoothly a week later the trucks and buses will change too.
(There, that should get the thread locked
