Reply to comment by degggendorf in Made this to send to people who ask me about Rhode Island by leilagotspazz

I'm curious how they're going to squeeze a rotary in that space that doesn't require drifting to make the turn, just because the space there isn't that big and it's bounded by the bridge and the businesses. I agree that a light would clog up the roads and be more trouble than it's worth. I do think the intersection of tower hill and annaquatucket by the high school needs a light, because turning off annaquatucket is hell when school gets out and it's never going to get better on its own.

Agreed

As I recall, the only thing being lost is like the two closest street parking spots, and the center of the rotary will practically be imaginary...just like a 3 foot brick circle at a similar level as the asphalt so it indicates where you're supposed go, but the odd semi truck could just roll straight through.
