“Welcome to CantonAgainstRoundabouts.com, your digital platform dedicated to advocating against the proliferation of roundabouts in our communities. The leading potential roundabout in Canton is at the intersection of Palmer and Sheldon. Currently this is a 4 way stop/turn utilizing “the honor system”.
A cursory view any school day will show an impressive misunderstanding on the part of a significant portion
of drivers in negotiating this simple process. (your turn, your turn, your turn, my turn!)

There is BREAKING NEWS from the Canton Focus that there will
be a “open house” on August 13 regarding the now becoming
infamous Palmer/Sheldon roundabout! Time is from 3-6pm
at the Summit on the Park. Rampant rumors that Captn Nondabout himself will be presentare at this time not verified. Stay tuned.

WELCOME NEIGHBOR !
There is a very nicely done site joining the conversation lately.
Its called keepcantonmoving (www.keepcantonmoving.com). It looks SLICKLY done and contains lots of “information”. You should check it out and see both sides of the issue. On this end it seems that good old common sense would show roundabouts to be the 10th circle of hell that Dante would have added had he lived long enough.

Meet Captain NON-dabout!!!

Roundabouts can see more, up to 20 or more crashes per year, especially during the early adjustment period after installation.
For example, a busy roundabout in Ann Arbor, Michigan, saw total crashes increase from 149 in the five years before its construction to 650 in the five years after.
