The roundabout will not be used for thru traffic from Main st to the bridge or the bridge to Gregory st. Bridge to Gregory will be an overpass and thru traffic to the bridge will have right of way bypassing the roundabout. Only traffice turning to 17th and 17th traffic to the bridge wil use the roundabout. Should not even slow thru traffic at all.

“Why do they always refer to the eastbound and westbound spans for a north-south bridge?”

Hwy 98 is an east-west highway. It does happen to be north-south at the bridge, but overall it’s east-west between near the Mississippi River at Natchez to Palm Beach.

Reminder to all truck drivers hauling high loads with all this changing around just be careful if you go under the RR tracks at graffiti bridge it is a low overhead bridge something like around 12′6″ can’t remember to be exact but it’s not the norm so be careful if you choose this as a route

I can’t wait to see all of the problems when the traffic circle is built. They can help the traffic moving but they are tricky to navigate if you don’t understand the procedure. Just remember the Griswold’s in European Vacation.
What is even more difficult in going into one in Australia. I remember the first one and it was scary as it is the other direction.
