Abstract
A total of 30 roundabouts with different dimensions and characteristics were selected from three
cities in Jordan. The collected data included the approaching road free flow speed (FFS), area
type, entry width, circulating roadway width, exit width, roundabout internal and external circle
diameters, circulating roadway super elevation, entry deviation angle, and drive curve. The
regression analysis showed that the entry width, internal circulating diameter, entry deviation angle,
approaching FFS, and drive curve were significant in determining the average and 85th percentile
roundabout circulating speed. The developed model was compared with other international models
developed in the United States and Italy.
