Speed traps on Hwy 130

[quote from Kapohocat] "What about we try one roundabout"

This is a good suggestion, imho.

Here in Alaska the road professionals recommended roundabouts to resolve some worsening traffic problems at trouble spots and met with huge resistance to the idea. I was among those who did not favor having roundabouts, mainly because I worried about how they would serve when roads tend to be icy (which is several months every year). One was put in and the number of accidents went way down even as flow improved and speeded up. Now there are several, including a double-roundabout (two roundabouts linked with each other on either side of an overpass). While it is the exact opposite of what I expected, they do work well --based on actual results-- and I am now glad the roundabouts are here even though I initially opposed them.
