According to the plan in the article, the new roundabout will be built between the existing ITV and La Siesta roundabouts.

thats going to create chaos on the 905

Why it is just another roundabout ?

old croc means while they are building it, and yes he's right, it's bound to cause a lot of disruption.

Looks like it is getting dug out now, just been past and you would think it was going underground from the size of the hole they have dug out

The addition of this roundabout may also act as a traffic calming measure for the CV905 between the ITV and La Siesta roundabouts.

The current two lane, straight stretch between those roundabouts makes it attractive for drivers to exceed the 50kmh limit.

It seems to me that only a minority stick to the 50kmh speed limit.

Only a minority stick to any speed limit anywhere.

I'm a bit surprised at where this appears to be. There is a road that ends abruptly near Porter House/Shannon's Pub strip (Calle Rafael Antón Peréz), I had assume this roundabout would be there. But it seems to be at the other side of a small strip of wasteland towards La Siesta roundabout, nearer the Citroen garage.

The article talks about two roundabouts, including the one you mentioned, Calle de Las Gardenias, the eventually leads to Shannon´s pub.
