I& #39;m ready to learn about roundabouts with @mobycon , but with coffee. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🕦" title="Ziffernblatt 11.30 Uhr" aria-label="Emoji: Ziffernblatt 11.30 Uhr"> https://twitter.com/mbruntlett/status/1316774271239286785">https://twitter.com/mbruntlet...
Lennart said "Professional Advocates". For me, that& #39;d be a stretch. I& #39;m merely and ignorant amateur trying to look like I know what& #39;s going on.

32 Conflict areas with a typical intersection.

8 Conflict areas with a roundabout.
A single lane roundabout can accommodate up to 25,000 vehicles per day.
Best practice, cyclist inside and pedestrians outside. Cyclists should travel in the same direction as cars.
Design/Control for cars, but this rumble strip allows for large trucks to make use when necessary. This helps you to not design a roundabout for trucks, but just incorporating features to make it useful for them as well.
Roadway connects at a 90 degree angle. This calms traffic and prevents it from being a turbo roundabout.
A pause in programming means I heat up my lunch!

Don& #39;t change that dial, we& #39;ll be right back!
@lennartnout "Dont do this. We Dutch don& #39;t always get it right ourselves."
More in the "Dont do this" series. Bi-Directional cycle path in a roundabout creates confusion for drivers and increases instances of crashes.
Congratulations to NY for creating a roundabout that Lennart finds to be hilarious. :)
This roundabout design received relative praise. Good job.
File this under "Don& #39;t do this"...
I will conclude my live Tweeting here. You can catch all the information presented today on @mobycon& #39;s YouTube channel. This presentation will be posted for viewing shortly.
The Q&A:

I& #39;m back because my question was answered first.

How important is colored asphalt in the cycle lane on a roundabout?

@mobycon : Very Important.
Takeaway: Extra lanes on roundabouts don& #39;t really increase car handling capacity. Single lane is the way to go.
