More and more Minnesota engineers and planners are exploring the potential for roundabouts in their communities.
A new DVD provides an engaging overview of the potential for and current usage of roundabouts in Minnesota.
How About a Roundabout? The Minnesota Experience introduces the concepts behind roundabouts and explains how and why to use them. Produced by the Minnesota LRRB Research Implementation Committee, the DVD explains how roundabouts should be navigated by cars, trucks, pedestrians, and bicyclists.
You can play the DVD on the Minnesota LTAP Web site videos page.
A supplementary brochure highlights key points. To order your own copy of the DVD or the brochure, contact Sandy McCully of Mn/DOT’s Research Services Section, 651-366-3768, sandy.mccully@dot.state.mn.us. You can also download the brochure from www.lrrb.org.
