South Bay Roundabout Increases Accidents, Confounds Drivers
SOUTH BAY, CA (April 17, 2024) — Intended as a traffic solution, a newly constructed roundabout between Hollister and Gilroy in the South Bay is now causing confusion and contributing to more accidents.
Designed to connect two busy roads and reduce collisions, the roundabout instead has drivers puzzled by its multiple options and others speeding through without caution.
Recent data reveals a troubling rise in South Bay roundabout accidents since the roundabout’s introduction, escalating from one every eight days to nearly one every three days.
Despite these issues, Caltrans maintains that the roundabout should serve as an effective traffic management tool, suggesting a potential need for further adjustments or driver education on navigating the feature safely.
