to discuss general design criteria and functional principles of turbo roundabouts; 2. to give the geometric design principles of the central island and circulating lanes; 3. to present three case studies from real world concerning the conversion of existing roundabouts into turbo roundabouts. Although...
Then two designs were applied for each roundabout according to Dutch design guideline manual using TORUS software by changing inner radius and opening width. The generated designs were analyzed using VISSIM software under the original traffic conditions, to evaluate the effect of introducing turbo ...
This significance is portrayed in the Dutch guideline to Turbo-Roundabout as it prescribes a lanewidth that varies. When practitioners apply this type of design in other regions, the geometricdesign will need to conform to the requirements of the local design vehicle. In this study, thefocus ...
In the last years, as regards the functional design of at-grade intersections, near to classic layouts (signal-controlled junctions, roundabouts, etc.) a new solution has born: the “turbo-roundabout”. It is a canalized multilane oval intersection with a non-traversable or partially traversable...
The tyres slip even with minimal power when going up slight inclines, and they recently caused my first crash in years while navigating a roundabout at a slow pace. After putting over 40000km on my bike using the previous gen S-Works Turbo tyre without any issues in wet conditions, this ...

Out of these two sightlines, the sightline that requires more area is selected for design purposes. The sightline from the approaching vehicle to the conflicting vehicle is needed for calculating the lateral clearance. According to the Roundabout Information Guide [16], it is recommended not to ...
The geometric characteristics of the turbo-roundabout case study are shown in Table 1 and Figure 1. Note that the design characteristics were chosen to be consistent with the basic turbo design proposed by [1,19]. Figure 1. The sketch of the turbo-roundabout. Table 1. The turbo-roundabout...
With the development of society, the accelerated urbanization process, and the growth of motor vehicles, the roundabout crossing is well above the design load. Therefore, if the roundabout does not meet the traffic needs, there is a need to increase capacity in the form of signal-controlled ...
