Turntable for Narrow Streets
TRAFFIC experts of Paris have found it necessary to install automobile turntables in certain of its narrow streets so that cabs and autos may be turned around without having to go miles out of their way to find turning places. Mounted on roller bearings which offer but little friction resistance, these turntables are easily operated by turning a hand-crank situated on the curb which is connected to the center post.
