Roundabouts

A roundabout is an intersection where traffic travels around a central island in a counter-clockwise direction. Roundabouts do not have bicycle lanes, so traffic must share the road. Vehicles or bicycles entering or exiting the roundabout must yield to all traffic including pedestrians:

When you approach a roundabout:

  • Cars in the left lane have the right-of-way. 

  • Slow down as you  approach the  roundabout.

  • Yield to pedestrians and bicyclists crossing the roadway.

  • Watch for signs and/or pavement markings that guide you or prohibit certain movements.

  • Enter the roundabout (heading to the right) when there is a big enough gap in traffic to merge safely.

  • Travel in a counter-clockwise direction. Do not stop or pass.

  • Signal when you change lanes or exit the roundabout.

  • If you miss your exit, continue around until you return to your exit. For roundabouts with multiple lanes, choose your entry or exit lane based on your destination as shown in the graphic. For example, to:

    • Turn right at the intersection (blue car), choose the right-hand lane and exit in the right-hand lane.

    • Go straight through the intersection (red car), choose either lane, and exit in the lane you entered.

    • Turn left (yellow car), choose the left lane, and exit.
