To a degree. I dont like it when we get almost 4 feet dumped and I have to offer the people that clear snow off properties more money than they usually charge to clear mine out first so my cousin can get in and open the store.
Gabe just hates the environment. The slightest bit of inconvenience sends him raging. He obviously doesn't care that we are in a drought and that our agriculture suppliers are suffering.
A light dusting of snow once in a while is about all I can take with a smile. Do NOT enjoy having to blow snow or clear sidewalks. More than 2" is too much for me.
I prefer metering to increasing the number of lanes. More than one lane makes roundabouts much more dangerous to navigate, especially with drivers who are not locals and do not understand how roundabouts work. 2 lanes = many more accidents plus 2 lanes need to be a much larger diameter for safety.
If it weren’t so maddening, our City counselors would make for a cast in a Monty Python show. They befuddle themselves with ludicrous ideas and foist them onto the taxpayers. Bend is becoming a laughing stock to outsiders and a source of continual angst for the residents.
If people used the roundabout correctly and actually filled in the gaps and went when there was an opening it would flow just fine. People wait for a bus sized gap before they go.
A roundabout's primary purpose in traffic management is to improve safety and traffic flow, resulting in less congestion and fewer accidents compared to traditional stoplight intersections. Key words: Flow, less congestion and Stoplights. Now they want to add Stoplights!!!
City waste at its Best!
What's the point of having a light at a roundabout? The point of a roundabout is to get rid of the lights. Widen it and start growing for the people coming here. The way bend builds, everything is obsolete by the time it's done.
I drive through this around about several times everyday and it is never an issue very rarely. Is it an issue? The reason they put roundabouts in for the first place was to get rid of stop lights and stop signs
I love the snow!
