SEYMOUR, Ind. – The city of Seymour recently announced it is planning a $1.47 million project at the intersection of Fourth and O’Brien streets to improve the flow of traffic and make the area safer for motorists and pedestrians.
The proposal calls for the construction of a mini-roundabout in 2022 to replace the existing four-way stop. Preliminary design plans and the environmental study can be viewed at Seymour City Hall, 211 N. Chestnut St.
The state provides 80% of funding for the project and 20% ($294,000) is from the city’s redevelopment commission.
The need for the project stems from the lack of bike and pedestrian infrastructure in the area and the significant queuing delay caused by stopped traffic. For more information, visit www.seymourin.org.
