I agree with Royall Round-Abouts aren’t the answer for Hwy 130.
For all his reasons and because they aren’t adjustable to traffic flow, they are a monument. Rush hour traffic will screech to a halt.
I hate traffic lights, but…….if you add some that are timed (Synchronized along the road) it will provide traffic flow on the main drag and still let traffic out of the side streets safely. Furthermore, it will separate traffic in to smaller bunches instead of one mass of vehicles moving at 3 mph. If a traffic loop is added (Tripped by a car on the side street) the light will stay green on the main roadway and only change on command from the sensor.
