New Type of Roundabout: Dual One-Lane Roundabouts on Two Levels with Right-Hand Turning Bypasses – ’’Target Roundabout’’ [PDF]
The problems of low level traffic safety on multi-lane roundabouts have been resolved in various ways in different countries, usually by using alternative types of roundabouts that reduce the number of conflict points.

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

New Type of Roundabout: Roundabout with “Depressed” Lanes for Right Turning – “Flower Roundabout” [PDF]
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 ...

Comparative Evaluation of Roundabout Capacities Methods for Single-lane and Multi-lane Roundabout [PDF]
A roundabout is a highway engineering concept meant to calm traffic, increase safety, reduce stop-and-go travel, reduce accidents and congestion, and decrease traffic delays. It is circular and facilitates one-way traffic flow around a central point. The

Effect of vehicle composition and delay on roundabout capacity under mixed traffic conditions [PDF]
Roundabouts are replacing conventional unsignalized intersections in many parts of the world (Polus and Shmueli, 1997). Capacity estimation is necessary for designing a new roundabout, to analyze and improve the existing roundabout facilities.

Traffic Circulation Efficiency of Elliptical Roundabouts
This paper investigates the impact of geometry of central island of roundabout on operational performance in terms of delay and capacity measures. A roundabout with an elliptical central island having major and minor axes of 63 and 44m respectively was ...

Two Stop-Line Method for Modern T-Shape Roundabout: Evaluation of Capacity and Optimal Signal Cycle
Uncoordinated traffic flows at the traditional roundabouts, especially with a small circumference and fewer lanes, are often heavily affected by congestion, which escalates fuel consumption, CO2 emissions, idling, and travel delay.

A simulation of traffic noise emissions at a roundabout based on a cellular automaton model
The calculation and evaluation of traffic noise is an important task in urban road design. Roundabouts are a common form of urban road intersection. The complexity of traffic operations makes the calculation of traffic noise near a roundabout challenging.
