Entrance control eliminates a conflict of vehicles at the exit of the two-lane roundabout [PDF]

open access: yesTehnika, 2015
Traffic flows are merged, overlapped and separated in a roundabout and thus creates a conflict spots and conflict zones. Number of conflict spots and the size of the conflict area of roundabout depends on the roundabout type and the number of incoming ...

Comparison of Single-Lane Roundabout Entry Degree of Saturation Estimations from Analytical and Regression Models

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2023
Roundabout design is an iterative process consisting of a preliminary geometry design, geometry performance checks, and the estimation of intersection functionality (based on the results of analytical or regression models). Since both roundabout geometry

Geometric Design of Suburban Roundabouts

open access: yesEncyclopedia, 2021
A modern roundabout is an intersection with a circulatory roadway at which the vehicle speed is low, and the traffic is continuous and circulating in one direction around the central island towards the exits at the approach legs. Modern roundabout design

The magic roundabout [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 2006
It is 2015, and what goes around has come around several times in the past 10 years. Back in 2005, Zebedee, or whoever it was who spun the magic roundabout from the Department of Health, seemed confused about the difference between change and progress. Change produced instant good-news stories but constant disruption within the health service. Progress
