Richmond may have to come up with another way to improve traffic safety and flow around the A.P. Hill Monument on the city’s North Side. Officials have accepted a state grant that would allow the Laburnum Avenue-Hermitage Road intersection to be converted into a two-lane roundabout, which would be designed to reduce speeds from 35 to 40 mph to 18 to 23 mph.
