The two north-south one-way streets are part of a state highway that divides
north of the courthouse and will reconnect somewhere south of the firestation.
The town square also moves in one (counter-clockwise) direction, as most town
squares do. Other than that, I don't see any more one-way streets happening.
When the fire trucks need to get out going north, the light at that corner
will turn all red, allowing them to hang a right and then turn right or left
at the light. And the one-ways won't be dead-ends for long.
One-way streets are actually good for traffic flow, since they allow
stoplights to be timed going both directions.
