No! Tell me they aren't building stupid traffic circles. And, there will be no way to avoid one if I want to drive to Miller Woods. They call that improvement?

And to think Rotwang, we all thought taking away plastic bags was bad. We aint seen nothin' yet. They've got quite the agenda down their at city hall.

Roundabouts are improvements. They are far more effective at moving traffic and safer then stop signs.

Good call city hall!

I have to agree with you Denise.
They take a bit of getting used to, but they regulate traffic very efficiently -- much more so that either a stop sign or stop signal. Once you get the hang of it, you can zip right through them.

If you have ever driven in Europe, you would appreciate how efficient traffic circles are

A long time resident once told me that you can do things two ways, the right way or the government way (while holding up his hand).

Traffic circles are a big waste of land. Someone needs to slap the idiot for allowing them to be put in.

Taking away plastic bags or adding traffic circles. Hahaha. First world problems. Who cares.

Do you always suggest violence against those you disagree with?

Denise

They need to put signs up in the neighborhoods affected to divert traffic safely. There is zero signage in the cottonwood area. Sloppy, and dangerous. Come on city.
