There is no problem with the Pittsboro traffic circle

I would have to say there is no problem with the traffic circle.  The problem lies with the drivers who either don’t know how to navigate around it or are just plain discourteous.   I’d much rather have a circle than a traffic light.

Also, just because someone perceives a problem with a particular entrance to the circle doesn’t mean they are targeting specific people.  I come from the General Store way regularly but I don’t live in Siler City.  I also regularly enter from 15-501 headed south too and don’t live directly N or S of the circle.  Oh yes, I also enter the circle from Hardees direction too
but I don’t live out there either.

I do completely agree about the use of the crosswalks.  I know it’s tempting to just get out of your car and cross the street for a tasty morsel but it can be dangerous.
