- W579813502 abstract "Approach guide signing for any intersection or interchange must aid drivers in proper leg choice and lane choice. Comprehension and conspicuity of guide signs and route signs are two essentials for navigation. Although navigation is beneath guidance and control in the hierarchy of driving tasks, early experience with complex roundabouts reveals weaknesses in existing practice. Alternative methods of developing guidance on navigation information content and placement are discussed and contrasted. These include development of guidelines by: adoption from the experience and research of others, primarily British practice; adaptation of practice to North American standards and conditions; and, a hybrid approach that suggests best practice can be derived from adopting the best of UK practice and combining it adapted elements from current signing strategies. This paper presents best practices guidelines for use and placement of guide signs at complex multilane/multi-leg roundabouts. The emphasis is on guide signing of more complex three lane roundabouts and multi-leg roundabouts with two and three lane entries. The following sign design factors are examined with examples and suggested guidance: • Legibility: Letter height and x-height as functions of distance and comprehension time—how these affect the comfort and safety of the motorist negotiating the roundabout • Placement: Lateral offsets, overhead vs. ground-mounted, distance from the circulating roadway, and appropriate exit signage • Diagrammatic: New Jersey Rotary Symbol vs. Modern Roundabout Diagrammatic Symbol, approach categorization (e.g., arterial vs. off-ramp), and by-pass turn lanes." @default.
