Solon has concerns about Twinsburg's plans to install two roundabouts near the cities' borders.
Twinsburg's plans to build two roundabouts on Darrow Road are causing some concerns north of the border in Solon. The concerns came about in Solon as council members there are looking to hire a new traffic engineering firm. One of the companies up for the contract is GPD, which is designing the roundabouts for Twinsburg. Solon councilmen have said that while they understand Twinsburg is relying on the judgement of their experts, Solon officials have general concerns about what the roundabouts will do to traffic in their city.

He said that GPD is already being …

The information in this report is from the Solon Police Department.
A Solon woman was sitting in the living room of her Glenallen Avenue home Tuesday night when a deer crashed through her bay window, according to a report from the Solon Police. The woman told police the deer jumped through at about 7:30 p.m. on Oct. 4. The deer began running around inside the house and eventually ran through the front door.

I'm a systems thinker, and what concerns me as they drew the border line on the "impacted zone" too … more ›
