You could be going in circles if you live in the city's southwest.

A few roundabouts have surfaced in the last couple years. According to Bob Neal, Engineering Team Lead with the City of Airdrie, more could be coming.

"West of 8th Street and south of Yankee Valley... 40th Avenue and 24th street corridors. We've got plans to install roundabouts at all the collector arterial interfaces."

One of the more notable roundabouts in the southwest is the area between Windsong and Southwinds off 40th Avenue. Neale says that area could see more roundabouts constructed.

"In about 5 or 6 different places along 40th Avenue going west to 24th street and on 24th street north to Yankee Valley Boulevard."

Neale estimates that as Airdrie grows, these roundabouts could be installed in the next five to ten years.
