◦ Compared to other similar
intersections: 2x higher % right angle
3x higher % rear end
2.5x higher crash rate
Existing Conditions, cont.
* 8,200+ intersections in ranking

Signal vs. RoundaboutIssue Traffic Signal Roundabout
Safety- Expected Crash Reduction*
Moderate benefit- 50% reduction
High benefit- 70% reduction
Crash Severity Moderate (still 25% right angle)
Low (virtually no right angle)
Operations High efficiency High efficiency
Benefit/Cost 1.0 2.0
Aesthetics Less pleasing More pleasing
O&M Costs Power, heads, LEDs, cabinet Landscaping, signs
Construction Under traffic Some closures & detours*based on FHWA crash modification clearinghouse
All-way stop eliminated based on 2030 operations ICE recommends roundabout
