Default True…I’m a bit of an optimist

It's over a mile from Chitty Chatty to the circle at Kristine Way.

So, you drive less than a quarter mile and wait for an opening to take a U-turn at the fire station.

OR

You drive 3/4 mile to 44, wait for the light, drive another 1/4 mile to the roundabout, come back to 44, wait for the light, then drive 1/2 mile back to where you would have been if you had made the U-turn. Don't forget, they'll be adding another light on Morse for traffic exiting Walmart which you will also need to wait for... twice.
It’s a drive to the circle, but obviously a U-turn next to the new Walmart entrance may be optimistic too. Either way, it appears the county isn’t about to spend the money yet for a circle. We will all have to wallow in the mess till things sort themselves out. Right now Waxman (a stones throw) is a projected entryway for the new shopping center. I wonder if the fire station and safety may trump the whole situation in the long run. Only the naive would think traffic will lighten up at that entrance. Perhaps an additional light may be warranted.
