Roundabouts are great for some traffic problems but not all.

The traffic problem in Picton in the summer is gridlock. This is a traffic volume problem. And much of that traffic is just using Main street to get to another place. A roundabout will not solve a volume problem but a bypass will divert much of it. And a bypass can be fashioned over existing roads.

And a roundabout will mean that traffic coming up the town   hill in  the winter will no longer have the right of way but will have to yield to traffic in the roundabout. We do not want traffic stopping part way up the that hill in winter.
