How Henrico neighbors helped bring a roundabout to Twin Hickory

Claire Dee learned to recognize the sound from inside her Henrico home. A screech of tires. A bang. So her routine was to grab her phone, sometimes a blanket or water and head toward the Twin Hickory Drive intersection to help. Why it matters: Those crashes pushed Dee and neighbor Janna Kiseeva to document wrecks and collect about 350 signatures calling on Henrico to make the intersection safer, spurring the county to install a permanent roundabout last year. The big picture: That neighborhood fix is part of a larger shift in how the county is trying to make roads safer. The county has installed 23 roundabouts since 2021 and now considers them its " primary design " for intersection improvement projects. Claire Dee and Janna Kiseeva at Kiseeva's wedding.

Kiseeva, who could also hear crashes from her home, started digging
