Description
The traffic congestion at Lake Nokomis on Cedar Avenue is increasingly heavier each year. A roundabout might help this intersection. I know a study addressing this occurred in the past and was later discarded. I think now would be a good time to revisit this (or other fixes) for this very congested node.

Don't fix this so-called problem!
There are far better things to do with our scarce tax money than work on this.
Give up part of our Parkland for more roads? No way! (And kill off a couple of good businesses in the process? No.) And none of those stupid roundabouts.
There are far worse intersections in the City that could be worked on -- assuming the City had money to work on any of them -- right now, they can't even afford to fill the potholes.
Anytime the City needs to make a bit of money, they can put a police car with radar here, and collect fines by the dozens.

It's not "so-called", it IS a problem. Sit at Fat Lorenzo's for just 5 minutes and you will see cars racing, honking, near-collisions (or actual collisions), pedestrians and bikers nearly getting run over, and more. Sticking our heads in the sand is not a solution.
There is an occasional patrol in that area, but not frequently enough to make a difference.
Fat Lorenzo's has had several severe collisions into the building over the years. The owner is an active supporter of improvement to this intersection as well.
