More Roundabouts Coming To Conway, Arkansas

The City of Conway announced the news on social media, revealing that the new roundabout would be placed at the intersection of Salem Rd and Meadowlake Rd.

They emphasized the fact that there’s no concrete timeline at this time, but construction will begin shortly after the completion of the roundabout at Hogan Ln and Hwy 64 (Old Morrilton Hwy), which is already underway.

Roundabouts Are Supposedly Safer…

According to the Illinois department of transportation, studies show that roundabouts are safer:

Roundabouts are safer due to the requirement of driving at 25 mph or slower, which increases reaction time for drivers encountering other vehicles or pedestrians. The slower speeds significantly decrease the likelihood and severity of injury crashes.

They’re being rolled out in a lot of the higher traffic areas of the country. Soon, they might even be commonplace throughout Arkansas.
