Through that article I have discovered that a book will be published by Ann Lane next year on roadside Art. I have often felt this would make a great book. By the way Ann Lane sounds a bit like you, and I mean that as a big compliment. (She went around the countryside on her motorbike photographing the artwork!) Grannymar, thanks so much for this.

They're fun and efficient. Although, some people have yet to learn the rules of driving in a roundabout. Like signalling! I'm pleased to say that we are seeing more of these in B.C. Street art - severely lacking here. :( I love roundabouts! They’re fun and efficient. Although, some people have yet to learn the rules of driving in a roundabout. Like signalling!

There is one near me and the paint has completly worn away from cars driving over it. Maybe that should be motorists driving over it!

I had to dig a little to find out. There are old Mill buildings scattered all over the county and I thought it must relate to them. Linen was big business here in the days before Easy Care fabrics.

We do have one way streets. Usually our boulevards run North and South, while our streets run East and West. I enjoyed your post!

BHB - Not sure I would like to meet a mountain lion. Magpie - Several Councils planted the roundabouts with colourful spring and summer flowers. They were very pretty and would draw the eye off the road. I have never come across an accident at any of these spots.
