I'm willing to make a bet that if this plan goes through there will be even more development and requests for traffic signals making congestion even worse.

Other nations are removing traffic circles and roundabouts... not Pendot they will put them in after others have proven them to be ineffective. Lets not forget European Vacation "Look kids the Parliament, Big Ben"

WOW!!! A $30M band-aid!!! The money that was spent on studies could have funded most of these projects!
Yet another car run over by a 18-wheeler last night on 222 North. What is the over/under on 18-wheelers tipping over in the circle?
just my 2 cents.

Once again Berks county gets the shaft from PENNDOT, and Harrisburg.

Like another said, Jersey got rid of them for good reason... What are these people thinking? Just like the construction on the 183 exit, way overboard and a waste of money

What the heck are they thinking? Wake up if you think the road is anightmare now, just wait till round abouts are in. What is needed is an over pass and an extended lane highway.
Stop wasting money on lame fix its' DO IT RIGHT!

Wow! I just saw that another person was killed on 222 near Rt. 73. When will PENDOT wake up and get this really fixed. No wait, let's study it a while longer. That's usually the answer.

This just shows how clueless PENDOT is and how everything is a bandaid rather than a real fix. Mr. Toomy says you have to learn the rules of the road. That may be true for the guy that uses it every day. But the people who use it for the first time will panic in high traffic conditions. Has PENDOT noticed that New Jersey has eliminated all if not most of their circles because as triffic picked up they became a nightmare. Again, Clueless!
