Question 1
Figure 1 indicates a set of design reference flows for the morning peak at a proposed roundabout
intersection. All flows are in vehicles per hour. Estimate the ratio of flow to capacity for each entry point.
A heavy goods vehicle content of 11% is assumed.
The following are the geometric parameters assumed for each entry arm at the roundabout:
e = 7.0 m
v = 3.25 m for each of the entry arms
l = 10 m
D = 28 m
phi = 31°
r= 11m
Show sketches to indicate circulating, entering and exiting flows on the roundabout.
