Six Corners Roundabout

As part of the City’s efforts to rebuild the Six Corners neighborhood after the June 1, 2011 tornado, Fuss & O’Neill partnered with the City of Springfield to develop intersection improvements in Six Corners, which is located in the heart of Springfield, Massachusetts.

The six-legged intersection was plagued with long delays, high accident rates, and unsafe pedestrian accommodations. Fuss & O’Neill worked with the City to develop a series of potential roundabout design options for the intersection. The design balanced complex geometry challenges to meet the City’s integrated goal of improved traffic circulation, improved safety, and creating a public space connecting the neighborhood.

Fuss & O’Neill assisted with securing MassWorks funding and delivered the design through a flexible, accelerated, and client-focused approach.
