I would be a very interesting experiment to take traffic cones, and convert the existing TV circles to SINGLE LANE. I think this would eliminate a lot of problems.
Just my thoughts.

Really? You think that thousands of people trying to merge either before or while entering the round a bout would be safer than the simple method of just staying in your lane?
