BMJ, 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

ROUNDABOUTS IN JAPAN – SURVEYING, PROBLEMS AND ISSUES [PDF]
Scientific Journal of Silesian University of Technology. Series Transport, 2019 A roundabout is not a popular intersection type in Japan. Vehicular traffic at most road crossings are controlled by traffic lights. This article comments upon a survey of Japanese roundabouts along with their numerical characteristics concerning, among ...

New Type of Roundabout: Roundabout with “Depressed” Lanes for Right Turning – “Flower Roundabout”
Promet - Traffic&Transportation, 2012 Recently, many of the foreign traffic-safety analyses point out the low level of traffic safety in multi-lane roundabouts. This problem is resolved in several ways in different countries; however, the solution, whereby the number of conflict points is diminished (e.g. turbo roundabout) has proven to be the most successful. However, the turbo roundabout

Comparative Analyse of the Two New Alternative Types of Roundabouts – Turbo and Flower Roundabout
The Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2014 Alternative types of roundabouts are usually more recent and have been implemented only in certain countries. Typically, they differ from “standard” roundabouts in one or more design elements, whilst the purposes of their implementations are also ...
