Improving the Effectiveness of Roundabout in Enugu State Nigeria (A Case Study of Market Road/OKPARA Avenue)

Current international research shows that improving the effectiveness of roundabouts improve vehicular and pedestrian safety compared to conventional intersections. However, their effects on pedestrian safety in the market road/Okpara Avenue Enugu can be proved. Complicating this problem is a scarcity of pedestrian accident data at roundabouts, especially at intersection locations that were reconstructed as roundabouts and could potentially provide accident statistics. This research seeks to examine the effectiveness of roundabouts by summarizing the vehicular and pedestrian safety.
