The City of Fishers is contemplating postponing the construction of a new roundabout at 116th and Allisonville Road due to a recent surge in accidents at another local roundabout. Officials attribute the increase in crashes at the 96th and Allisonville Road intersection to factors such as elevated traffic volumes, reckless driving, improper lane usage, and motorists neglecting to yield. The city intends to mitigate the situation by enhancing law enforcement patrols and adjusting signal timing.
FISHERS— The City of Fishers is considering delaying the construction of another roundabout at 116th and Allisonville.It comes after some drivers in Fishers have grown increasingly concerned as crashes at a new local roundabout have spiked over the last month. The problem lies at the 96th and Allisonville Rd roundabout as it's a learning curve for some drivers.
'We have seen a 40% increase in traffic at the intersection due to the INDOT construction on 465,' said Stephanie Perry, City of Fishers. 'We are increasing law enforcement patrols in the area to address these issues and adjusting signal timing to help with traffic flow.' One recent crash, which occurred on the evening of Jan. 27, involved a red Toyota RAV‑4 that flipped onto its side, shattering its windows.
