Ann Arbor gets another Roundabout.


Pretty soon Ann Arbor won't be called the "tree city" anymore. With another roundabout under construction in the Northeast Ann Arbor part of town, Ann Arbor may just be called the "roundabout capital" of Michigan. The exact location of the latest roundabout is at the intersection of Huron Parkway and Nixon Road. This roundabout is just one of several planned for the Ann Arbor area. Last month it was announced 3 roundabouts are going in at the US23 and Geddes Road area. Additionally, there is talk of one or possibly two more going in at Whittaker Road and Huron River Drive, in Ypsilanti Township. My buddy Norm Johnston, who is in the road construction industry, has to be ecstatic. Norm was in charge of the roundabout that was completed last year at Geddes and Superior Roads in beautiful, Superior Township.

So, it looks like driving around the Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti area is going to take a wee more bit of patience in the coming months, with all of road improvement projects underway or coming up. But, if it means we drivers get our roads around Ann Arbor and Ypsi improved, I'm all for any inconvenience!
