Roundabout Project Need Long Traffic Q’s and excessive delay on

E/B Holman Hwy 68Q’s extend well beyond CHOMPImpact to public safety / access to hospital

Operations / Safety at PB GateAcceleration from Holman Hwy to southbound

Tighter Radius = Slower Speed,

Slower Speeds = Less Merge Distance Req’d

Less Downstream Merge Distance Req’d

Improved Pedestrian Safety

Improved Entry/View Angle

Longer Merge Distance

Improved Lane Utilization

Separation of Decision Making / Improved Signing and Lane Choice
