Roundabouts 107, 108, to open by Sept. 2 . . .
School may be starting and swimming pools may be drained soon, but in the world of road construction, summer is still on the calendar. Over the next few weeks, there will be several changes happening across the city of note that might change your daily driving routine. So please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the new traffic patterns. These new detours, combined with the beginning of the school year, may cause you some unanticipated delays. Carmel continues its goal to improve our local transportation system with better roads, safer intersections, more efficient traffic flow and additional measures to increase safety for pedestrians and bicyclists.
