KillineyTowers Roundabout Version 3B
This is my finalized proposal for Killiney Towers Roundabout. Modifications have been added to the previous proposal including a cobble stone surface as well as speed ramps at the exits.
Above all, the entry and exit radii for each junction of the roundabout have been somewhat restored to their original wider shape with a few differences.
The kerbs have been widened by between 2 to 5 meters to allow the installation of a fully segregated cycle track between the junctions. Moreover, the cycle track and the curbs would not be cobble stone.
The idea behind this is closely inspired by the roundabout in Carrickmines Retail Park while the speed ramps would be made from tarmac. The desired effect overall would be that traffic is calmed on the roundabout and yet, it would remain suitable for vehicles of all specs.
