We actually had a roundabout installed in our area recently. It really relieves pressure during rush hour at this intersection without the need for a traffic light that would back things up the rest of the time. I wonder if this experiment will lead to more instances.
Yes, it relieves pressure during the day. Then within 2 Years some bloke and his poor family will get wiped out at night and then the lights go up again. Then 10 years later the board gets the idea they can improve traffic flow by taking the lights down and improving the roundabout. Then within 2 years later, some bloke and his poor family gets wiped out at night and then the lights go back, and so it repeats indefinitely.
