We'll probably be talking about this around 2020 when the updated Lindsey is back to being plagued with traffic backups and accidents. However, whats done is done and so be it.
The next areas to look at are Lindsey to campus, which provides a great opportunity for single lane roundabouts to keep traffic moving through there. Get rid of every traffic light. The next snag point are the pedestrian crossings on Lindsey. If we can prohibit large vehicle traffic down that road, then putting in pedestrian bridges should be looked at. Very tasteful, brick arches to fit in with the rest of the campus.
Asp Ave put in a single lane roundabout there. Boren has stated he is open to putting on in at Jenkins and they could put up a really nice art piece in the center of it - maybe sports related.
George Ave has the room for a two lane roundabout.
Lindsey and Classen is an interesting case. Busy intersection, but large amount of land there. You also have the new higher density development going in at that corner as well. A larger 2-lane roundabout would really go along with that transformation in that area.
