I wonder if anyone ever tried this solution........merge all the 2 lanes into 1 lane BEFORE they get to a round-a-bout. Then have only 1 lane inside the round-about. Some will say that this will cause very big backups. Then, if there are long backups, that means that there probably needs to be a 4-way traffic light installed. So, in conclusion, use round-a-bouts ( to save the cost of traffic lights) on roads with ONLY light traffic. I welcome other out-of-the-box ideas.
