Sandpoint Close To 1st Roundabout

Item: Sandpoint moves closer to first roundabout?/ Keith Kinnaird, Bonner County Bee

More Info: The city moved closer Friday to getting its first roundabout intersection. Th e City Council voted during a special meeting to acquire 11,000 square feet of property at the northeast corner of Boyer Avenue and Larch Street, according to Mayor Gretchen Hellar. The $152,117 acquisition from developer Renova Partners is the last acquisition of land necessary for the roundabout, which is meant to grease the flow of traffic at the heavily used intersection.

Question: Dalton Gardens just installed a roundabout on 4th by its City Hall. Coeur d’Alene also has a coupla more around town. I wasn’t impressed by the roundabout at 4th & Kathleen when it first went in. But I like it now. What do you think of roundabouts?
