dc.description.abstract A first for South Africa, the KwaZulu-Natal Department of Transport (DoT) has partnered with the South African National Roads Agency (SANRAL SOC LTD) to upgrade the R102 / P535 / P743 intersection( west of the eSikhawini off-ramp off the N2 between Mtunzini and Empangeni) into a Turbo Roundabout traffic circle. Royal HaskoningDHV was appointed for the design of the turbo roundabout. The benefits include:  improved driver safety  reduced delays and congestion at the intersection; and  improved pedestrian safety and crossing opportunities When compared with a normal traffic circle, the crossing over of lanes when exiting the circle has now been eliminated with the design of the Turbo Roundabout, resulting in less side swipe accidents. en_ZA
