Sažetak

There are various methods in the world for the calculation of the roundabout capacities. Some methods are very specific and implemented in different countries for different types of roundabouts. The paper presents two advanced scientific methods for the calculation of roundabout capacity – method HCM C-2006 and the method according to Ning Wu. Using the methods and according to the actual field measurements of traffic flows and driving conditions, the intersection capacity and the indicators of effectiveness (congestion level, delay control and vehicle queuing length) were analyzed. The analysis included fifteen roundabouts that are located in urban and suburban areas of the City of Zagreb. Results should also serve as basis for further systematic research of methodology for calculating the capacity of roundabouts in Croatia but also for possible selection of specific foreign method with calibration of certain coefficients according to local conditions of traffic flows.
