OverviewThis book presents a history of roundabouts, an introduction to their design, calculations of their capacity and traffic-safety features.

The book illustrates a broad variety of these recent alternative types of roundabouts, as well as proposed types still in the development phase, explaining for each the specific needs it meets, its advantages and drawbacks.
