Thanks.

No, there isn't a bridge like this in my area. The idea came from the movie
"Chronicles of Riddick" of all places. There was a building, four sided but
walls curved inward and with open court in the middle. When I saw that building
I thought "WOW! That's it!" (just make it three sided instead of four).

On the signs, I was considering (seriously!) using "yield" instead of "stop". I
think the only reason why I picked to use "stop" was because they cost less. I
was also considering (again seriously!) placing three stop signs at all three
intersections (9 signs) but thought that was a bit overkilling it.
