The upcoming Chase Road Project includes the addition of Cass County's First Roundabout.
The new roundabout will improve the traffic situation at the far east end of Chase Road.

 

What Is A Roundabout?

A Roundabout is a one way circular intersection,
with a counter-clockwise traffic flow around a center island.

A roundabout moves traffic through intersections without using traffic signals or stop signs.

Roundabouts improve traffic flow through an intersection, and improve intersection safety.
