Turbo-roundabout comparison
Abstract
Studies about pollutant emissions are still extremely scarce as there are no general conclusions about its true impact regarding local and global pollutants. Therefore, the development of further research is justified so that it can contribute to a better understanding of the real performance of turbo-roundabouts, based on different levels of demand and traffic distribution. This scientific report paper illustrates modern turbo-roundabout and its comparison with other roundabouts. Traffic volume, environmental efficiency and performance of turbo roundabouts corridor compared. These results are generally from the results of previous studies, applied to an isolated turbo-roundabout both regarding overall volume, the influence of the traffic distribution, as well as regarding pollutant emissions.
