  We construct a stochastic cellular automata model for the description of
vehicular traffic at a roundabout designed at the intersection of two
perpendicular streets. The vehicular traffic is controlled by a self-organized
scheme in which traffic lights are absent. This controlling method incorporates
a yield-at-entry strategy for the approaching vehicles to the circulating
traffic flow in the roundabout. Vehicular dynamics is simulated within the
framework of the probabilistic cellular automata and the delay experienced by
the traffic at each individual street is evaluated for specified time
intervals. We discuss the impact of the geometrical properties of the
roundabout on the total delay. We compare our results with traffic-light
signalisation schemes, and obtain the critical traffic volume over which the
intersection is optimally controlled through traffic light signalisation
schemes.
