Lynnwood gets first roundabout

If you don’t drive in Lynnwood every day you might not have realized the city is celebrating a new arrival.

Lynnwood’s first roundabout is located at 204th Street SW and 68th Ave. W. near Edmonds Community College.

Now, roundabouts are designed to make intersections safer and more efficient, but new things can be intimidating.
Here’s how to look like a pro in a roundabout. Yield to drivers in the roundabout (don’t stop) and watch for pedestrians.

Check out this video from WSDOT called How Do I Drive a Roundabout?
