A CASE STUDY ANALYSIS OF ROUNDABOUTS ENTRY CAPACITY LOCALISED ON ONE OF THE MAIN ROAD IN SOSNOWIEC CITY (POLAND) [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Journal of Silesian University of Technology. Series Transport, 2019
This paper is a case study, which among other things includes the analysis of the three roundabouts entry capacity: a turbo- and two spiralroundabouts. These intersections are located in one of the main road localised in Sosnowiec city (Poland).

Assessing Vehicle Emissions from a Multi-Lane to Turbo Roundabout Conversion Using a Microsimulation Tool

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
The development of urban strategies for the reduction of environmental impacts and decarbonization requires ongoing monitoring from the local scale and further deployment of actions to improve transport demand (user characteristics and modal choice) and ...

Performance Evaluation of a Hybrid Roundabout Using a Microscopic Simulation

open access: yesThe 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”

open access: yesPromet (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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

open access: yesTehnicki 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 ...

Transformation of an ordinary ring road intersection into a turbo ring intersection: bandwidth comparison 

open access: yesИнтеллект. 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 ...

Comparing Performances of Turbo-roundabouts and Double-lane Roundabouts

open access: yesModern Applied Science, 2012
Starting from assumptions regarding the arrival process of circulating streams and according to models based on the gap-acceptance theory, the paper is aimed at comparing operational performances between basic turbo-roundabouts and double-lane roundabouts.

Traffic Efficiency Evaluation of Elliptical Roundabout Compared with Modern and Turbo Roundabouts Considering Traffic Signal Control

open access: yesPromet (Zagreb), 2017
This paper compared the performance of elliptical roundabout with turbo and modern roundabouts. It considers the effects of increasing the central island radius and speed limit on delay and capacity.

Comparative Analysis of "Turbo", "Reduced-Turbo", "Flower" and "Semi-Turbo" Roundabout

open access: yesTehnički vjesnik, 2020
A growing number of studies, presented in scientific and professional literature, point out a poor traffic safety characteristic of "standard" two-lane roundabouts, and lower capacity than expected. These problems are resolved in different ways in different countries; however, the most successful solution has proven to be reducing the number of ...
