Justin Dixon+FollowWenatchee’s roundabout revolution: Love it or hate it?Roundabouts are popping up all over Wenatchee, and it’s changing the way we drive—sometimes for the better, sometimes not so much. While Washington is now 4th in the nation for roundabouts, locals still debate whether these new traffic patterns actually help or just add confusion. Interestingly, many of the so-called roundabouts here are actually traffic circles, which are designed differently! Some slow down speeders, others keep traffic flowing at busy intersections. Is Wenatchee becoming “Roundaboutchee,” and are these changes making your daily drive smoother or more stressful? Share your experiences and let’s talk about what’s working—and what’s not. #Travel #Wenatchee #Roundabouts10Share
Kevin Nicholson+FollowWhy roundabouts are popping up everywhereMore and more roads are swapping out traditional intersections for roundabouts, and it’s changing the way we drive every day. These circular intersections aren’t just about traffic flow—they’re actually making our commutes safer and smoother. Studies show roundabouts cut down on serious crashes and keep cars moving, even during rush hour. Plus, they’re easier on the environment since cars don’t idle as much. If you’ve noticed more roundabouts in your neighborhood, you’re not alone. What’s your experience with them—love the change or still getting used to it? #Transportation #Roundabouts #TrafficSafety01Share
