Mini-roundabouts in Minnesota Benefits of Roundabouts with a Smaller Footprint and Lower Cost

摘要

The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT), cities, counties, and the consultant community have made great strides in utilizing a broader range of intersection types to solve transportation problems in Minnesota. By the end of the 2018 construction season, MnDOT and local agencies will have constructed 29 restricted crossing U-turn (RCUT) intersections, six diverging diamond interchanges (DDI), two continuous Green T intersections, and more than 100 roundabouts.
