FoundationFoundation
• Roundabouts were beginning to appear more often as a traffic control solution nationwide.
• In the late 1990’s, KDOT was interested in roundabouts as a alternate form of traffic control. Roundabouts provided the safety, capacity and flexibility KDOT was looking for.
• Early on Barry Crown, Michael Wallwork and Kittelson & Assoc. were designing the major portion of the roundabouts in Kansas.

DirectionDirection• Because the idea of using roundabouts was
growing in Kansas, KDOT formed a committee to provide a focal point for roundabouts and their design.
• The committee wanted to ensure uniformity and consistency in the design of roundabouts, yet still allowing flexibility, on the state and local system.
• The committee decided a document was needed for Kansas. This led to the development of the Kansas Roundabout Guide.

OutlookOutlook
• A goal is to be self-sufficient in the review of roundabouts.
• KDOT requires a review of any roundabout that has State or Federal funding.
• Kansas is a big proponent of roundabouts and is very aggressive in implementing roundabouts and have had good success.
