- W60496182 abstract "The purpose of this study is to use field measurements to compare the fuel consumption of vehicles going through a typical roundabout in the United States to that of a nearby signalized intersection. Fuel consumption was measured with a fuel-gauge equipped vehicle passing through the intersections multiple times. Each measurement started and ended with the vehicle being driven at the speed limit, 25 mph, and using a ‘normal’ non-aggressive driving style. The experiments lasted for 0.2 miles; 0.1 miles on either side of the midpoint of the intersections. According to these observations, a driver going straight through a roundabout would, on average, use 30.9 mL of gasoline as opposed to 45.4 mL of gasoline going straight through the signal, a savings of 14.5 mL. The savings for left turns would be even greater, or 15.6 mL; whereas right-turning drivers would save only 5.2 mL. A driver who goes straight through ten roundabouts of this type on a daily basis would use 29.8 gallons of fuel per year (over the 0.2 miles studied). If they instead went through ten signalized intersections, of the type studied here, they would consume 43.8 gallons a year. The savings of going through roundabouts rather than signals would amount to 14 gallons per person per year, a savings of 32% compared to the signal. If every licensed driver in the US were faced with this situation, though sometimes turning, the savings would amount to around 2.7 billion gallons per year or 1.5% of current fuel consumption." @default.
