    Ohh, finally a city going in the right direction. I can’t wait until they discover the “roundabout” and how it calms traffic, improves flow, and also lowers accidents

    I mean, good for them for finally making first steps, better late than never, but seriously: This is stuff that has been available for decades now.

    Please, more, lots more!

      If you look at Pittsburgh’s roads, they’re quite constrained by the geography. I’m not saying you’re wrong but it wouldn’t be easy.

      Roundabouts are freakin amazing - they reduce fatal crashes by like 90% compared to signalized intersections and most people dont realize they actually improve traffic flow once drivers get used to them!
