Want to tell the state how you really feel about roundabouts? Now’s your chance.
A survey is being conducted by Western Kentucky University on behalf of the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet.
“The main objective is to identify the specific concerns and difficulties encountered by Kentucky’s road users when navigating roundabouts,” according to a release. “The survey will also highlight the main recommendations and solutions that Kentuckians perceive to help improve the safety of roundabouts in the Commonwealth.”
The collected data will be stored securely and will be aggregated for academic and research purposes only, according to the release.
The survey includes a number of questions, addressing the following 5 areas:
- Socio-Demographic
- General Driving-Related
- Roundabout-Specific
- Crash-Specific
- Roundabout Safety Concerns and Recommendations
The survey includes a mix of different types of questions (e.g., multiple-choice, radio button, rating, and essay questions).
“It would be beneficial for the study if you explicitly express your input in essay-type questions,” the release reads. “It is targeted that through this survey, necessary needs and concerns regarding roundabout safety in Kentucky can be identified.”
The deadline to submit a response is February 29.
