Benefits of Roundabouts
Roundabouts offer the benefits of continuous traffic flow, lower travel speeds and fewer collisions. They can cost less to operate and maintain and reduce emissions when compared to traffic signals. Traffic studies determine whether a roundabout or traffic signal is appropriate for an intersection.
