Both Ringling roundabouts now open

Downtown motorists and pedestrians now have complete access to Ringling Boulevard once again. The roundabout off of Ringling Boulevard at Palm Avenue opened yesterday afternoon.

The roundabout opened three days sooner than its anticipated June 15 opening. A roundabout on Ringling Boulevard at Pineapple Avenue opened May 18.

The goal with the roundabouts is to improve traffic flow through downtown by replacing a traffic signal at Pineapple Avenue and a 4-way stop at Palm Avenue.
