The Indianapolis media has been devoting considerable attention to the roundabout at 96th Street and Allisonville Road, which sits on the border between Fishers and Indianapolis.

On Thursday, Indianapolis Star reporter John Tuohy published a story focusing on traffic incidents at the intersection, citing data provided by the Fishers Police Department.

According to the figures shared with the Star, traffic crashes at the intersection have decreased by 20% over the past five months, compared to the previous three-month period. The data also show that there were significantly fewer accidents during the time the intersection was configured as a Michigan Left—a design that drew frequent complaints from drivers.

While many criticized the Michigan Left, the new roundabout has sparked its own share of controversy, continuing to be a focal point for public discussion and media coverage alike.
