Get ready for more roundabouts.
That's the word from the State Department of Transportation, which is announcing four of the new, safer, circular intersections are coming to the region over the next two to three years.
Regional Director for the New York State Department of Transportation, Kevin Bush, says compared to a tradition intersection, roundabouts see a decrease in severe crashes at typically slower speeds.
"A traditional intersection is more prone to T-bone accidents, or head-ons and can be much more severe," he said.
