Gran Paradiso: Roundabout planned on US41 at entrance

An email was received this morning regarding the results of the analysis for a roundabout at the junction of US41 and IslandWalk/Gran Paradiso.

It states:
The department has reviewed and analyzed the US 41 at Corradino/Galleria intersection.  At this time the department is moving forward with the roundabout option at this location.  We believe this is the best operational treatment for this intersection.  However further analysis is needed, which will include a concept and cost estimate for both the roundabout and traffic signal.  Once this analysis is complete we will be meeting with the builders and/or their representatives to discuss this further.  This effort should take no more than 3 to 4 weeks to complete.  

In the meantime, should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Best regards,
