still waiting to see the final design. The sketch in the paper showed the North/South lanes almost inline with the roundabout. This would allow traffic to enter the roundabout AT SPEED. I contacted FDOT about my concerns, the reply was the intermediate solution that you see now, but no details on the specific design of the roundabout. I am going to reserve any other comments, until I see FDOTs design, but I do have concerns about preliminary design.
Guess we will have to wait and see.
