3 Virginia's Highway System 57,867 miles of statemaintained system 1,118 miles of Interstate 8,111 miles of Primaries 48,305 miles Secondaries 3
4 More than just roads VDOT is also responsible for 12,603 bridges + 4 underwater crossings in the Hampton Roads area 2 mountain tunnels 3 toll roads 1 toll bridge 4 ferry services 41 safety rest areas 10 welcome centers More than 100 commuter parking lots 4

7 Roundabouts: The Virginia Experience Roundabout Program Formally Established in Virginia in 1997 Encouraged new roundabouts on construction projects Created centralized review committee Relied on FHWA guidance; Currently use Roundabouts: An Informational Guide Use aasidra for evaluations
8 Approval Process District Approves: Approach volumes <= 10,000 vpd Subdivisions Review Committee: 4 members representing TE, L&D & Planning State L&D engineer makes final decision 101 operating; 104 in planning stages

11 Design Features Follow Roundabout Design Guide Parking normally not allowed within functional area of roundabouts (bulb outs may be an exception) Recommend curbs on approaches and throughout roundabout to provide better containment of vehicles Prefer raised splitter islands but have allowed flush if no ped traffic. Have used exclusive right turn lanes but have concerns with merge points where ROW limits acceleration lane 11
12 Challenges Pedestrians and bicyclists All ped crossings comply with ADA requirements; designed to provide shortest walking distance possible. Use 6 wide raised splitter islands at the ped crossing point All ped crossings are located 20 upstream Sidewalk widths range from 5 up to 10 when shared use Recommend a minimum 2 landscaping strip between sidewalks and curb Bike lanes terminate 100 prior to the edge of the circulatory roadway; bikes can use curb cut ramps/sidewalks 12
13 Va Tech Campus
14 VUU City of Richmond
15 Challenges (continued) Access / driveways in close proximity Shift; Shortened splitter islands or used flush islands Will allow access to gas station only in rural, less congested area. Acquire parcel as last resort Trucks Mountable curbs used on truck aprons; Less mountable curbs used on approaches / departures from roundabout. For inside truck aprons, the slope should be similar to the roadway Outside truck aprons for easier right turns by large trucks Evaluations include auto turn tracking. 15
16 Christopher Newport University (Newport News)
17 Outside Truck Aprons
18 Challenges (continued) Landscaping Encourage landscaping as long as sight lines are maintained High Speed Approaches Lane narrowing such as low growth plants/raised Islands Signing Speed reductions In-lane rumble strips Lighting Advocate for lighting at each location; if cost prohibitive, we recommend retro-reflective edge line markers or Bollards 18
19 Amherst Roundabout
20 Challenges (continued) Traffic calming Different objectives than traditional roundabouts Use consistent yield at entry and deflection to maintain driver expectancy
21 Challenges (continued) Driver Education / Public Opinion Website / video Coordinate with DMV Pamphlets Simulation at public hearings Educate and Train VDOT designers, traffic engineers and planners Think beyond on-time and on-budget during project development Break out of signal comfort zone More evaluation needed 21
