摘要:Construction of roundabouts is intensified over the past 20 years in all European countries. Accordingly, those kinds of intersection are becoming more important in Croatia. The reasons for this are numerous advantages of a roundabout over the conventional intersections. Basic characteristics of roundabouts are traffic channelization, the possibility of connecting 4 or more junction roads and reduction of conflict points. This results in improved security and higher intersection capacity as their greatest advantage. There are five roundabouts built in the city of Osijek. As the existing roundabout proved to be useful and practical solutions, their number will increase in the near future. In this paper the basic characteristics of roundabouts and the specifics of roundabouts built in the city of Osijek are presented.
