@BrentToderian@mastodon.online while it is a sexy piece of architecture and can be celebrated as something positive, it's also quite unnecessary/overengineered for bicycles to have roundabouts, especially in a low traffic area. This increases travel time and distances, and could easily have been a simple 4-way junction.
It's a hard discussion to have, because it's a cool piece of infra, but it also begs the question if it's truly what cycling needs... 😂

@zeraien@mastodon.world @BrentToderian@mastodon.online Since its suspended rather than cantilevered maybe the circle was the strongest most lightweight engineering choice. #Engineering ?
