It’s Roundabouts Week 2025 and we have some awesome news to share!

The dogbone roundabout at I-75/U.S. 68/SR 15/Lima Avenue in Findlay is a huge success.

The data is in, and we’ve seen a major drop in crashes and injuries.

ODOT said from 2016-18, before the roundabouts were built, there were 48 crashes and eight injury crashes. 40 percent were injury crashes.

ODOT said, from 2021-24, there have been nine crashes and one injury crash.

That’s an 86 percent drop in total crashes and a 91 percent drop in injury crashes.

ODOT’s Cheri Newton on the effectiveness of roundabouts.

“They improve intersection safety and improve congestion. They can handle a lot of traffic efficiently and do so while reducing crash severity and crash numbers.”
