The Alton Circle used to be half one way and half the other. The rebuilding project accomplished a consistent situation where the people on the circle have the right of way.

The town of Milford had a traffic circle layout years ago where the three entrances had the right of way. During busy times the incoming cars would clog the entire thing and nobody went anywhere.

Some traffic circles in England have traffic lights during the rush hour periods to give the yielding traffic a chance to get in.
