First roundabout in Massillon opens to traffic, see drone photos

MASSILLON – The city's first roundabout is slated to open Nov. 13 to motorists who travel a main section of the west side. The $1.16 million circle is at Main Avenue W at Tremont Avenue SW. Work started in April and finished this week. A redo of Main Avenue and Tremont Avenue intersection was necessary because the two roads run nearly parallel to each other. They come together at a sharp point near the former Third Base bar property, which had a triangular shape. Third Base was demolished a few years ago to make space for the project . "We think the roundabout should improve the flow of traffic in the area and is a boost to (driver) safety," said Mayor Jamie Slutz . The new roundabout is surrounded by multiple pedestrian sidewalks, decorative bricks, as well as rock-filled center isle. City Engineer Alex Pitts said the center island will be upgraded with three flagpoles. One will hoist the U.S. flag, and the others are for the state of Ohio and Massillon flags. The intersection at Tremont and Main avenues average approximately 3,000 motorists per day, according to Pitts, who said the circle's speed limit is 25 mph. Most of

Dumped tires prompt warning from Wayne County Sheriff's Office

The Wayne County Sheriff's Office is warning residents that illegally dumped roadside tires can create public health and environmental hazards and lead to criminal penalties. Discarded tires can collect rainwater and become breeding grounds for mosquitoes. According to a community announcement, the Sheriff's Office is urging residents to properly dispose of unwanted tires rather than leave them along roads or on public or private property. “People think that leaving a few old tires along a roadside is harmless, but there are consequences beyond the litter itself. These tires can create environmental and public health problems, and dumping them on public or private property is against the law,” Wayne County Sheriff’s Deputy Alex Abel said. The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency identifies illegally discarded scrap tires as a public health and environmental concern because their shape allows water to collect and remain trapped. The Ohio Department of Health advises residents to properly dispose of unwanted tires to help reduce mosquito populations and prevent mosquito-borne illnesses. Mosquitoes found in Ohio can transmit diseases such as West Nile virus and La Crosse encephalitis. The Ohio EPA also identifies discarded tires as potential breeding sites for mosquito species capable of transmitting dengue, Zika and chikungunya,
