State project will trigger night work at Towson circle
[B' Spokes: Last I heard the Towson circle wasn't too ped friendly so now they are making it permanent for ped friendlyness? Are they actually talking to people or are they just making this stuff up?] **********************************

SHA District 4 Engineer David Peake said that the administration is working with the county “to enhance safety and pedestrian access to the roundabout.”
In short, much of the work will involve making permanent the temporary changes that were instituted in 2008 to make the roundabout predestrian friendly, as well as minor additional improvements.
For instance, designated turn lanes and signs that were installed in 2008 were designed to reduce traffic speed and conflicts, give drivers clearer direction and make life easier for pedestrians in the roundabout crosswalks.
The work this year will produce upgraded pedestrian crosswalks, relocated gutters and sidewalks, and new concrete curbs, and include resurfacing and the painting of lane demarcations.
