What is Wrong With This Photograph? Part 35

I have been walking a lot lately — think miles of walking, especially as the springtime weather has been conducive lately to being outside to enjoy a pleasant morning, afternoon, or evening — to escape from the continued madness which is the 2019 Novel Coronavirus pandemic…

What is Wrong With This Photograph? Part 35

…and as I was walking along a street, I found something which did not immediately catch my eye because I was not driving a vehicle.

  2. Two key issues… 1-The order and 2-The Orientation of the Traffic Circle diamond (not square).

    The order: 1. Traffic Circle Ahead. 2. Yield Ahead. 3. Yield. (note: due to the poor distancing placement, 1 and 2 could be interchangable).

    The orientation of the Traffic Circle Ahead… it should be hung as a diamond per standard. There is a white regulatory version of this to be placed AT the traffic circle that is square, but that is not what is here.

  3. 1) There is a traffic circle where a normal cross street intersection would be more than adequate for apparent traffic flow.

    2) The traffic circle was situated and built as a retro-replacement for a normal cross street style intersection, so the radius configuration is too small. Think larger vehicles that have need to get through, like a fire truck…

    3) Sign placement and order are screwed up, but easily resolved by taking out the traffic circle and putting in a proper, traditional cross street intersection. 🙂

    I have nothing against traffic circles, when designed, sized and placed correctly; they suck when placed as a retrofit to existing intersections.
