missed turn? No problem on the roundabout as it is a well known – mostly – circle. Uncertain drivers can also drive two or more laps to decide on an exit. It is clear where the roundabout got its name from, but what is being done with it worldwide and what curious versions have resulted? We’ve looked into that for you.
From mini roundabouts to the gigantic Arc de Triomphe in Paris, they come in all sorts of designs: with colorful planting, artists’ installations, with one or even twelve lanes, with right-hand traffic inside and left-hand traffic outside. You can even find them in underwater tunnels or – promisingly – with energy-generating elements. Like in Weikendorf, Lower Austria, where there is a sunflower in the middle. Normal flowers are no longer enough, creativity is required. Standing out at any price is of course the motto.
