~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The modern roundabout is becoming increasingly popular in the United States. Twenty three states -- including Alaska, California, Colorado and Utah -- have active roundabout programs.


Construction of the roundabout will start soon in Emory village.

The roadwork consisted of three phases. First, outdated water lines along North Decatur Road have been replaced by DeKalb County. This project began in mid-January 2009. The second phase, which will also last approximately 60 days, involves burying power lines along North Decatur Road. Georgia Power will manage this project.

Both of these projects must be completed before DeKalb County can begin the final roadwork project, the roundabout. That project is projected to begin this fall. As a precursor to the County’s roundabout work, Emory University has recently completed its new entrance, which will provide additional space needed to develop the roundabout.

The Alliance to Improve Emory Village is committed to providing periodic updates on these projects. For additional information on developments, events and merchants in the Village, visit www.emoryvillage.org. .

Here is a European youtube of how a roundabout works there.
Note:
European right of way rules for roundabouts are the opposite of those in the United States but this "just" gives you the concept of what it would be like.
