While safety is a shared priority for the Morton community, the current proposal for a single-lane roundabout at the intersection of U.S. Highway 12 and State Route 7 presents significant logistical challenges that outweigh its perceived benefits:
Freight and Large Vehicle Mobility: This intersection is a critical artery for the logging and trucking industries. Despite "truck aprons," navigating a tight roundabout with oversized loads increases the risk of trailer off-tracking, potential rollovers, and significant delays for the commercial drivers who power our local economy.

Because there is no need for a roundabout it will only make things worse.
