Accommodating OSOW at roundabouts is the central issue and the need for this research. Note that the acronym OSOW has been used in this report as a universal term, generally understood to mean a permitted vehicle. OSOWs impact pavement structure, roadway geometrics, and traffic operations. These issues are discussed in the report. OSOWs are a reality for American industry and often critical for certain industries. A better understanding and sharing of current practices is essential for states that permit such movement, and the industry which must rely on state highways and a permit to deliver large loads. Thus, the main objectives of this report are to compile current practice and research by various states and countries related to the effects OSOW have on roundabout location, design, and accommodation. Second, the research will attempt to fill in information gaps with respect to roundabout design and operations for this class of vehicles.
