Roundabout Project Need

 Long Traffic Q’s and excessive delay on

E/B Holman Hwy 68

 Q’s extend well beyond CHOMP  Impact to public safety / access to hospital

 Operations / Safety at PB Gate

 Acceleration from Holman Hwy to

southbound Hwy 1 entrance ramp

 Reduction in crashes and crash severity

 Dramatic Emission Reduction - as

compared to signal

Design Optimization - Challenges

Merging Thru Down- Stream Intersection Un-Defined Intersection Vehicular and Bicyclists Safety Concerns Large RT Radius = Higher Speed
