Roundabouts 
Roundabouts, particularly large ones, can be the most dangerous
and difficult junctions for cyclists. When planning your route,
avoid using busy roundabouts if possible. Alternatively, you can
get off your bike and walk to the road you want to use. Always look
carefully for traffic in both directions before crossing.
Some roundabouts may have crossing points or cycle lanes
adjacent to help you.
Points to remember:
- All traffic travels clockwise on roundabouts
- Give way to traffic already on the roundabout travelling from
the right, unless road markings show that you have priority
- Maintain good all round observation and inform other road users
of your intention to change direction by signalling
- Follow usual procedures for turning right, by looking behind,
signalling and moving to the right hand lane or to the centre of
the road, if no lane
- Signal left after you pass the exit road before the one you
want to take
- Make sure that both hands are on the handlebars whilst turning
into the exit road
- Always watch traffic carefully. Vehicles may try to overtake
you and cut in front of you before you reach your exit road
- Cyclists are at risk if they keep to the left edge of
roundabouts because drivers may cut in. Don’t forget, you can walk
with your bike or plan a safer route.
NOTE: Roundabout markings may vary
