Dora-Beirut Roundabout


[Picture from Google Earth]

Whenever one refers to Dora, traffic and chaos come to one’s mind. I pass by Dora almost everyday and get stuck for at least 20 minutes just to go all the way around the famous Dora Roudabout.
Few days, i was again stuck in traffic when i noticed how huge this roundabout is. I mean seriously, its surface area is unbelievably huge compared to the tiny roads around it, and it occured to me:
Why don’t they cut down a bit of that roundabout and make more space for the cars?

Or even better, why don’t they cut a road in the middle of it for those heading towards Jounieh and leave the right lane for those heading inside Dora.

There are tons of stuff you can do with this roundabout, but the dumbest thing is to leave it as is.
