Problems of ensuring traffic flow on a Basic turbo roundabout with non-standard curvilinear entries (a case study) [PDF]
: With ever-increasing motorisation and the desire for greater traffic safety, conventional roundabouts and turbo roundabouts are being designed. Turbo roundabouts provide greater traffic safety than conventional roundabouts due to the segregation of ...

Performance Assessment of Turbo-roundabouts in Corridors
AbstractThere is a widespread agreement in the scientific community that the transformation of a conventional multi-lane roundabout into a turbo-roundabout results in a significant increase of road safety levels. However there is no consensus regarding its effect in terms of capacity, as there are some authors that point towards a small reduction in ...

Estimation of Passenger Car Equivalents for Two-Lane and Turbo Roundabouts Using AIMSUN
The paper addresses issues related to Passenger Car Equivalents (PCEs) at roundabouts. Compared to other road units, the curvilinear elements of roundabout geometric design may impose greater constraints on vehicular trajectories and have a significant ...

Capacity Model for Single-Lane Minor Entry at Turbo-Roundabouts
Spirally arranged and physically separated traffic lanes in the circulatory carriageway of turbo-roundabouts force drivers to choose a particular entry lane and, subsequently, a circulatory traffic lane according to their intended destination.

Multi-lane Roundabout Capacity Evaluation
Although two-lane roundabouts theoretically exhibit excellent operating performance, in practice, safety problems arise because of inappropriate driving behavior.
