Roundabout Appreciation Society

The Roundabout Appreciation Society (UKRAS) is a group of people in the United Kingdom that discuss traffic roundabouts. The main topic of discussion is the architecture of the roundabouts, including their design and safety features.^[1] Other topics have included the approaches people take when driving towards and around a roundabout, and the wildlife present on some of the larger junctions. Their aim is to promote safe driving and consideration towards other road users.^[2][3]

The society was formed by Kevin Beresford after the success of a calendar that showed photographs of 12 roundabouts in Redditch – as of 2015, it sold 100,000 worldwide since 2003.^[4]
