The path is there it is just blocked by a pole leaving access for the 60 ft or so to pedestrians and bicycles. It seems like it would be safer to just open it to Golf Carts.
Too many automobiles stopping to let the golf carts cross, this resulted in traffic backing up in the roundabout. Also, too many golf carts not stopping for the stop signs.
