Capacity Limits of Basic Turbo-Roundabouts [PDF]
Communications, 2016 Turbo-roundabouts with their specific design characteristics have become a suitable solution of a single-lane roundabouts capacity problem and a standard two-lane roundabouts safety problem.

The Implications of Converting a High-Volume Multilane Roundabout into a Turbo Roundabout [PDF]
Journal of Advanced Transportation, 2020 With the growing number of vehicles utilizing roads in the city of Doha, Qatar, most intersections, particularly multilane roundabouts, have been facing traffic congestion dilemma, where traffic demand exceeds capacity.

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 ...

A safety analysis of roundabouts and turbo roundabouts based on Petri nets [PDF]
Traffic Injury Prevention, 2019 Objective: In this work, a roundabout and a turbo roundabout model are compared and previous modeling with continuous Petri nets and safety are analyzed through indicators of complexity. Petri nets are a graphic and mathematical representation that allow a faithful modeling of urban systems.

Turbo roundabout - An alternative to classic two lane roundabout
Put i saobraćaj, 2023 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.

Performance Evaluation of a Hybrid Roundabout Using a Microscopic Simulation
The Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2021 Roundabouts are one of the safest types of intersections. There are a number of roundabout types in literature. Each roundabout type is distinguished by some characteristics.

New Type of Roundabout: Roundabout with “Depressed” Lanes for Right Turning – “Flower Roundabout”
Promet (Zagreb), 2011 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 ...

Estimation of Passenger Car Equivalents for Two-Lane and Turbo Roundabouts Using AIMSUN
Frontiers in Built Environment, 2020 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 ...

Geometric design of turbo roundabouts
Tehnicki vjesnik - Technical Gazette, 2017 Turbo roundabouts are lately a more common choice in designing multilane roundabouts. First guidelines for geometric design of this particular roundabout layout were developed by a Dutch Information and Technology Platform CROW in 2008. Soon after, a number of European countries began to develop their own regulations on turbo roundabouts, adjusted to ...

Интеллект. Инновации. Инвестиции, 2020 In large cities, a situation often arises when roundabout intersections of highways no longer cope with the passage of traffic flows. The main reasons for this problem are the inconsistency of the potential traffic capacity of the roundabout with real ...
