ALL ABOUT ROUNDABOUTS
We know… roundabouts can be intimidating. And that might be why the Pershing Roundabout has more crashes than it should. But don’t worry…we’re here to help.
ROUNDABOUT CRASHES ARE ON THE RISE, CHEYENNE!
IT’S UP TO US TO REVERSE THE TREND.
TIPS FOR DRIVERS
MIND THE MERGE
Wait for a gap in traffic, then enter the roundabout.
SLOW & STEADY
Roundabouts are most efficient at speeds 20MPH or less.
STRAIGHT OR RIGHT?
If you’re heading straight or right, choose the right lane.
LEFT OR TURNING AROUND?
If you’re heading left, going straight or need to flip around, choose the left lane.
DON’T HATE ROUNDABOUTS
When used correctly, roundabouts have been proven to:
REDUCE COLLISION SEVERITY
REDUCE TRAFFIC DELAYS
IMPROVE OVERALL TRAFFIC
REDUCE EMISSIONS
REDUCE ELECTRICITY USE
INCREASE GREENSPACE
