Peanut Roundabout Cracks Traffic Safety Challenge
Roundabouts have become more popular in U.S. traffic engineering design and have become creative solutions to complex and unique traffic issues. In Beech Grove, a dangerous intersection at Churchman and Perkins Avenues has a history of many crashes, leading to the decision to implement a "peanut roundabout". The MPO provided funding for the project in order to reduce crashes and calm traffic. Learn more about this project by clicking here.
