“…Roundabouts have become increasingly used all over the world over the recent decades [20]. This intersection type has curved fastest path and lower number of potential conflict points in respect to classic signalized and non-signalized road intersections which results in greater traffic safety and higher capacity [18]. Furthermore, at roundabouts queue lengths are significantly shorter and speed profiles are notably smoother which leads to lower fuel consumption and lower emission of harmful gases [27].…”

Scientific Journal of Civil Engineering (SJCE) is an international, peer-reviewed journal published bi-annually since December 2012. It is an open access Journal available at the web site of the Faculty of Civil Engineering in Skopje (www.gf.ukim.edu.mk). This Journal is committed to publish and disseminate high quality and novel scientific research work in the broad field of engineering sciences. SJCE is designed to advance technical knowledge and to foster innovative engineering solutions in the field of civil engineering, geotechnics, survey and geo-spatial engineering, environmental protection, construction management etc. As an editor-in-chief of the Scientific Journal of Civil Engineering, it is my great pleasure to present the Second Issue of Volume 9, an issue that is mainly devoted to MARE, the Macedonian Association for Roads Engineers. MASE has been present in the engineering world for 50 years. Celebrating its 50 th anniversary they organized the First Macedonian Road Congress in Skopje, in November 2019. This congress gathered more than 300 participants from 16 different countries.

Turboroundabouts are specially designed multilane roundabouts with spiral circulatory roadway and physically separated traffic lanes. This roundabout layout was developed in the late nineties of the last century with the aim of increasing the traffic safety and capacity at classic multi-lane roundabouts. However, the experience has shown that turbo roundabouts have certain deficiencies -due to its complex geometry and large outer diameters, the reconstruction of existing less safe multi-lane roundabouts into turbo roundabouts is financially very demanding. In that case, a construction of so called flower roundabout is much better solution. Namely, unlike in the case of turbo roundabouts, it is possible to adjust the existing multi-lane roundabouts into flower roundabouts without moving any of the outer road curbs. Within the scope of this study, geometric design and performances of these two modern roundabout types are analyzed. Their advantages and disadvantages in regard to performances of classic multi-lane roundabouts are discussed, examples from Croatian design practice are presented, and recommendations for their planning and designing are provided.
