We're very much concerned with how congested traffic will be at the school entrance. We don't think the <br />roundabout will allow smooth, continuous flow in both directions during school start and end. A turn signal <br />there that could be left in amber mode on the school side & full mode during the critical school hours would <br />be much more effective. <br />I think that at the end of the school day the circles will be a grid lock. You need to run your simulation with <br />the volume of cars and traffic at school pick up at end of day and adjust accordingly. <br />Good with what is proposed as long as they keep tunnel and have crosswalks at roundabouts. Would like to <br />see well marked crosswalks at Deerwood. <br />Yes roundabouts! New ideas are often hard for everyone, but roundabouts are definitely the best. We need <br />to listen to the experts. PLEASE put in a roundabout at Old Birch, it's so dangerous and dark with NO street <br />lights and people flying/driving at 55 mph. Also please lower the speed limit. I trust the roundabouts will be <br />extra large. Financially it would be best to include Old Birch now when you have the bids, contractors, etc... <br />Later it will be a ton more $. Please go all the way to Old Birch!! :) <br />We are thankful for what the county is going to do along Birch St in front of the school. It would be a good <br />idea to add the roundabout at Birch & Old Birch (as is currently proposed). We live in the Saddle Club <br />development and can definitely say that traffic at that intersection can be dangerous. We have already <br />witnessed one accident there and would hate to see any more. Cars move on Birch at too high a rate of speed <br />around that corner. <br />When I heard that the alternative to roundabouts was a four lane Birch Street with traffic lights, I understood <br />better the benefits. I also learned how this design stops left-hand turns and how the roundabouts work <br />instead. I am encouraged that this is a good solution for the traffic problems on Birch Street <br />1) Thanks for listening! I see comments from the first meeting drawn up on the current plans! 2) Adding the <br />3rd roundabout looks like a great idea from a safety standpoint for cars and pedestrians! It acts as a natural <br />slow down for cars coming around the curve by the church! <br />Like the roundabout concept. Please consider the 3rd one at Old Birch. Possibly on at Blackduck also sooner <br />rather than later! <br />Please put the roundabout in at Old Birch & Birch Street. We live on Pheasant Run south. It can be very <br />dangerous pulling out onto Birch! Lighting at Old Birch Street would be great. Hard for friends to see the light <br />when driving to our home. Also a trail to connect us to the north side of Birch would be great. Thank you! <br />Yes roundabout and yes definitely need path to Old Birch and roundabout to Old Birch. Old Birch is sooo <br />dangerous and needs a roundabout. Do it now with this project it will be cheaper now. <br />Approve of all plans including 3rd roundabout. <br />Overall understand problems and solution - consider instead of 2 roundabout, do just one at West Shadow <br />and create a drive out the east side of the school to West Shadow. This would help keep traffic flowing better. <br />Also - consider deleting the outside curbs so as to allow for better chemical filtration. Stop creating all of <br />these mini toxi waste sites aka ponding. These will eventually come back to haunt us all!! <br />All of Birch needs to be addressed. Way too many cars and people pass on shoulder all the time. Have you <br />considered a center opposing left turn lane? Again, PLEASE look at Birch all the way to Centerville Rd.
