Traffic Circl
Hubby, the girlies and I headed to Meredith for dinner this evening and were able to experience the circle/roundabout at about 6:15 pm. Having grown up in South Jersey where negotiating a circle was a part of daily life, I have to say that the design was not what I am used to...it didn't seem to flow at all. Maybe my living in NH for almost 20 years has left my circle skills rusty. Hubby and I agreed that the cobblestone area on the inner circle makes no sense to us and could be hazardous at best. There must be a reason for that design, but we don't see the benefit.
We just don't understand why a traffic circle was necessary at that location...traffic is fairly heavy for 2 months a year, that's about it (personal experience only -- we don't have to travel that route daily).
Maybe this was addressed earlier in this thread or elsewhere on the forum, so please bear with us. Can anybody offer the reasons/justification by the town/state regarding this?
Thank you -- Gravy
