Just how many people are they expecting to be walking down those huge sidewalks and where are the going?

They didn't think this through. *yes I know they did with many meetings*

Maybe there are bike lanes there as well

Yes in the article it states its a shared use bike lane as well

Roundabouts and crosswalks are my everything!
Let's go!

I predict these ppl will get run over by a lot of Nissans and Subaru WRXs with all them trees!

The good news with this reconfiguration is that if you’re coming up from the south, you now have a direct access to the backside of the hill. Traffic will likely be backed up on business Loop 81 from the traffic circle a bit, but it’s something that wasn’t there before

SU fans clearly didn't attend any of those meetings or we would've seen an extra turn lane in that roundabout.

What is the point of that sidewalk if those pedestrians can't get to the other side of the freeway?

The full picture shows a crosswalk more to the north. It's cut out of that snip.

In the Subaru WRX's defense, the pedestrians should hear and see it coming due to the loud exhaust, the trunk rattling from the subwoofers and the ploom of vapor billowing out from the vape pen. The outcome is on them.
