🚗 Traffic circles and roundabouts and rotaries – oh my! 🚗 Buckle up as we delve into the fascinating world of circular intersections and discover some interesting tidbits in this edition of #AskAnEngineer! 🟢 Traffic circles: A typical intersection – but with a twist! Drivers enter the circle at a right angle like a typical perpendicular intersection and may not have to yield to traffic already in the circle. Traffic circles often have stop signs or traffic signals where branches meet the circle. 🟡 Roundabouts: A circular intersection where drivers travel counterclockwise around a center island. No traffic signals or stop signs here! When entering a roundabout, you gotta yield to the traffic already in the roundabout. Once you’ve done that, you can smoothly cruise along the circulating roadway and exit at your desired street. It’s like a merry-go-round for cars! 🔴 Rotaries: These are the wild cousins of roundabouts! According to Washington County DOT, a rotary functions like a freeway cloverleaf, where traffic entering the freeway from a loop ramp must weave quickly with traffic exiting the freeway at the next loop. It’s a whirlwind of cars merging and exiting in perfect harmony!   We also found all these circular features have variable definitions depending on who you ask. It’s just like the age old debate of highways versus freeways. We might have a specific idea of the differences, but many folks, even engineers, often use the terms interchangeably. Oh, and of course, because we are engineers, someone suggested renaming these circular traffic features with a snazzy acronym: CFCI (Circular Feature in the Center of the Intersection). Fancy, huh? So, what’s your take on this? Are they synonymous? Or should we give the circular traffic features on Camp Humphreys a specific name? Let us know! #TeamTrafficCircle #TeamRounabout #TeamRotary #EngineeringWonders

It’s been one week since WISCONSIN ASPHALT PAVEMENT ASSOCIATION 2023 and I’m still on a high. Talking to users about how OnStation is helping them, learning about deeper workflow ideas, and introducing OnStation to new folks all were amazing. But the “cherry on top” (OnStation Nation 23 reference😊https://lnkd.in/g9Ek4zB6), was the Wisconsin Department of Transportation presentation on their usage of OnStation. Wow! Talk about persistence, starts / stops, evolution, meeting the customers needs, showing them the potential, implementing their request, training, adding features and so much more! This dance has been going on for several years now as the mutual benefits are real and powerful. Parlaying this current usage stage into ever expanding use cases, departments, and existing software is going to make for an awesome 2024 within WI and beyond. 💪 Many thanks to James B., Brandon Lamers, David Esse and Erik Lyngdal for all the assistance, engagement, faith and excitement. Great working this event with Tyron Canady. First APA experience! Tradeshow season is upon us. Look for the green shirts in TX, CT, WI, WA, IN, FL, PA, NC, MI, KY, IA, TN, WV and OK! This OnStation Train is moving. Leading from the front. Transforming an industry. 🚆 #RoadwayProjects #OnStationLessons #BuildWittTraining #InnovationOnTheRoad #OnStation #safety #JobSiteSafety  #DigitalStationing #Stationing #DigitalStation #Construction #ConstructionSafety #StationFinding #StationFinder #Innovation #ConstructionTechnology #ConstructionInnovation #Technology #Innovation

Compact Roundabouts is my objective to install at an appropriate location in 2024. What a fantastic facility especially on rural roads, has a smaller footprint, minimal to zero land acquisition, cost is contained not multi million dollars. What I don’t understand we have the traffic engineering tools such as compact RBTs, dwell on red, wombats, yellow box road markings, advisory speed chevrons, mini painted RBTs and other innovations in the tool box that all add up to continuous improvement or incremental road safety improvements to the ultimate objective of making a dent in the climbing fatality rate going forward. This is in combination with the 3 other safe system pillars safer people, vehicles and speed. I am confident we can do this with ‘can do’people that are passionate, courageous, self initiating to implement innovation and a vision to save lives and make a difference to the community.
