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
