I just drove by and saw that the lot was surveyed . Are they rebuilding or are they putting roundabout in?

Are round abouts the new speed bump? I’ve been seeing some crazy round abouts way out in the middle of the country where 2 state roads cross. That has to be to force people to slow down.

My understanding is that it basically eliminates high speed t-bone crashes and replaces them with minor fender benders.
In this specific case, people are not really driving that fast there anyways.

And I was just going to say that there is No “Y” in Garrison.
February 24, 2024 at 7:56 am #2256043I know people have pulled boats through roundabouts for years, but in an area like that it wouldn’t hurt to make it a little extra big for all the boat/ trailer traffic.

They are designed to handle tractor trailers so boats aren’t an issue.

It was a treat to have a California burger and play pinball.For sure. Between that and the live bands at the blue goose. It was busy area.
I am sure you have stopped there but maybe not because you turn off before that but check out The Joint just north on 169. Good eats and good tabs.
