Kyle is enhancing safety and functionality at its intersections, according to information provided at an Oct. 2 City Council meeting.
In a nutshell
City of Kyle officials are moving forward with the addition of 12 roundabouts as part of the city’s 2022 Road Bond program.
The council received an overview on how roundabouts improve traffic flow, enhance safety and reduce collisions at busy intersections during the meeting.
The details
According to a report given by Mike Trimble, Kyle Transportation and Public Works director, roundabouts are being strategically placed in high-traffic areas where improvements are most needed, especially as Kyle continues to grow rapidly.
The designs include both single-lane and multilane roundabouts, which will vary based on location, with factors such as surrounding road capacity, pedestrian usage and nearby development taken into consideration, Trimble said.

- Windy Hill Road at Cherrywood
