Do roundabout accommodate tractor trailers?
Yes. Roundabouts are designed specifically to accommodate large vehicles. As big rigs approach roundabouts, they should stay close to the left side of the entry. As they pass through the roundabout, their trailer may drag over the special apron around the central island – which was designed specifically for this purpose. At a multilane roundabout, tractor trailers may need to occupy the entire circulatory roadway to make the turn.
