Traffic signal is one of the control approaches used for roundabouts. Although many models are used for signalized roundabouts, studies involving their comparative analysis are not sufficient. This study focuses on evaluation of traffic signal timing approaches used for roundabouts. Different control models of roundabouts were carried out by using VISSIM software. We compared different methods including the priority control, the entrance signalization and the full signalization control approaches. A number of simulation experiments were designed. Signal timing values were calculated by using the data obtained from field observations. For the two-stage left-turn signal control, the new signal timing process and calculating method were proposed. Some detailed experiments were also made regarding the Yang model and the model developed by Cakici and Murat. Some threshold values were determined in the experiments. Different intersection geometries and traffic conditions were taken into account. Very interesting and encouraging results were obtained.
