Petition updateNewcastle says NO to Blue House roundabout proposalsWhy were Feb-2013 plans scrapped despite being a fraction of cost and with no loss of green space

Here is a document from Feb. 2013 in which consultants recommend the replacement of the Blue House roundabout with a signalled junction on the same site in order to improve traffic flow through it. No new junction.
No loss of green space. Cost: £2,827,011

Why is that idea now in the bin? Why was it eliminated from consideration?
