Friends. You wrote a lot of emails (a lot!!!) I don't want to jinx it... But I think we won! The rogue Fishtown gardener says thank you. I appreciate that I get to keep my rocks and flowers. 🪨🪨🪨🌼🌺🌸🪨🪨🪨

The broke city's guide to traffic calming: old concrete pipe filled with dirt are one the cheapest yet most effective ways to turn any resident intersection into a mini roundabout! Near impossible to speed through the intersection, and doesn't negatively impact pedestrians! – at St Louis, MO
Four large pot strategically placed in the middle of the intersection so cars have to drive around them, turning the standard intersection into a mini roundabout

Remember when the Streets Dept. said that the rock flower planters in the @19125Roundabout needed to be removed then people just ignored them they just never bothered to fix it? I think about that a lot.

Springtime at the roundabout! Also, Carlton the cactus has inspired some art!

The whole thing with @19125Roundabout and the rocks was about whether gigantic trucks would be able to make the turn without driving over the middle. But what if we could decide democratically we don’t want that size of truck on the streets at all… – at Philadelphia, PA

Is the city within its rights under state law to ban vehicles of this size from driving on city streets? – at Philadelphia, PA

Seattle tried a traffic circle in 1991 to slow the cars. Results: ❤️‍🩹 94% drop in crashes ❤️‍🩹 99% drop in injuries What's your city waiting for?

Roundabouts are reminder that humans cannot be bothered by your silly facts. "As a cyclist, I don't like them" "As a police officer, I don't like them" "As a drunk driver, I don't like them" "As a pedestrian, I don't like them" "As a traffic signal sales rep, I don't like them"

The red, white and blue flowers at the @19125Roundabout are looking mighty holiday-appropriate this #MemorialDay.

I cross streets at @19125Roundabout at least once a day and its so much easier/safer than before. And despite having to ~*slow down*~ its still faster to get through the intersection when in a vehicle. A+
