Turbo roundabout - An alternative to classic two lane roundabout
Traffic congestion and the questionable safety of two-lane roundabouts are two justified criteria for the introduction of turbo roundabouts. The increase in capacity, which also results in an increase in the level of service, is a positive aspect of this alternative type of roundabout.
