ACHD‘s Roadways to Bikeways Master Plan calls for more robust bike facilities along this type of roadway. MULTI-USE PATHWAYS: Are two-way facilities meant to accommodate both pedestrians and bicyclists of a wide range of ages and abilities. Provide more space between motorists and those walking and biking, which increases safety. Are used on roads with higher speeds and traffic volumes. LAKE HAZEL & MAPLE GROVE ROUNDABOUT JUNE 2021 • ADA COUNTY HIGHWAY DISTRICT WHY A ROUNDABOUT Roundabouts are a viable alternative to traffic signals for several reasons. SLOWER SPEEDS The circular design forces drivers to slow down. FEWER SERIOUS CRASHES Right-angle, left-turn and head-on collisions are unlikely. IMPROVED TRAFFIC FLOW Traffic keeps flowing which reduces delay. DECREASED POLLUTION Vehicles have fewer stops and spend less time idling in traffic. SHORTER PEDESTRIAN CROSSINGS Pedestrians only cross one direction of traffic at a time. LAKE HAZEL & MAPLE GROVE ROUNDABOUT JUNE 2021 • ADA COUNTY HIGHWAY DISTRICT LARGE VEHICLES AND ROUNDABOUTS Roundabouts are designed to accommodate large vehicles, providing a wider turning radius for trucks and other long vehicles. A “truck apron” on the edge of the center island allows large vehicles and trucks with trailers to maneuver through a roundabout by allowing the wheels of the truck or trailer to roll onto TRUCK APRON the apron. Semi—trucks, emergency vehicles and school buses will be able to drive through the roundabout. TRUCK APRON Learn more about roundabouts.
