Traffic is now open following the completion of a new roundabout at the intersection of County Trunk Highway Q and Hillside Road on the border of the Village of Richfield and Village of Lannon.

A news release says the intersection was formerly under two-way-stop control. It was converted to a single-lane modern roundabout in an effort to address the volume and severity of the crashes that had been occurring at this intersection.
