New Roundabouts to Open This Weekend
The City of Sarasota is sharing a series of informational videos to help educate motorists on how to navigate the new multi-lane roundabouts on U.S. 41 at 10th and 14th streets ahead of their planned opening this weekend. The roundabouts are being constructed by the Florida Department of Transportation; traffic shifts are expected to occur over the weekend, with travel lanes at U.S. 41 and 10th Street changing to a two-lane roundabout configuration by Friday, April 17, and at U.S. 41 and 14th Street by Sunday, April 19. High-intensity activated crosswalk (HAWK) pedestrian crossing systems will also be activated and are included in the simulated driver’s view instructional video.
The series of informational videos includes:
- A simulated driver’s view of the two roundabouts
- Understanding the symbols used in roundabout pavement markings and street signs
- 10th Street roundabout lane and route guide
- 14th Street roundabout lane and route guide
