The intersection of Gilman Street and Interstate-80 averages 11 major accidents a year. That's where traffic converges from 14 directions, with no stoplights.

The Chronicle reports the city now wants to install a double roundabout there. One would be on the east side of Interstate-80, the other would be on the west side.

Supporters say the roundabouts would force drivers to slow down and would better funnel traffic.
