My issue is not whether traffic circles work or not. We all have been to and through them. Even in Paris around the Arch de Triumph with a multiple lane circle it works.....once one figures it out.
It is more the fact, for me, that it is most likely not a good idea for the location intended.
Add into the equation high volumes of high speed traffic, high percentage of people new/visiting the area, even higher percentage of senior and senior plus drivers and a formula for disater is in the making.
I would like to see or hear the dialogue that concludes with the recommendation of a traffic circle in that location.
