Never in a million years. Then the capacity of all roads in TV would be halved...or worse.
The existing roundabouts are fine. Of course they are different than what many people are used to and require a period of adjustment. But they are as safe as signalized or stop sign intersections with far more capacity.
Traffic volumes matter. It's what dictates road design. Single lane roundabouts would never work in TV. The developer and his transportation experts knew that.
