Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what guidance his Department has published on the construction of soft roundabouts on public highways.

Mini-roundabouts are a prescribed traffic sign within the Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions (TSRGD) 2016; it is for local authorities to ensure any mini-roundabouts placed are compliant with legislation.

The Department for Transport publishes and regularly updates the Traffic Signs Manual, which contains guidance for traffic authorities on the use of traffic signs and road markings. Guidance on mini-roundabouts can be found in Chapter 5 of the Traffic Signs Manual on GOV.UK: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/773421/traffic-signs-manual-chapter-05.pdf
