[[File:Blenheim Main Street Roundabout looking north (LCM20210404).jpg|thumb|The [[Main North Line, New Zealand|Main North Line]] railway bisects the {{NZlSH|1}}/Main Street roundabout in [[Blenheim, New Zealand|Blenheim]], New Zealand.]]
In [[Jensen Beach, Florida]], the main line of the [[Florida East Coast Railway]] running north–south bisects the two-lane roundabout at the junction of Jensen Beach Boulevard running east–west. It hosts three other roads and the service entrance to a large shopping plaza. Boom barriers line the railway crossings. The landscaped central island bisected by the tracks was originally [[kerb]]ed, but [[semi-trailer truck|18-wheelers]] had trouble negotiating the roundabout, so the kerbs were replaced with painted concrete strips. The roundabout was built in the early 2000s and improved traffic flow, although long freight trains often cause delays.<ref>{{google maps |url= http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&q=27.24395,+-80.22742&safe=active&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hq=&hnear=0x88dee7066d9fab49:0xd4730553b50a5cbf,%2B27%C2%B0+14'+38.63%22,+-80%C2%B0+13'+38.60%22&gl=uk&ei=aIUNTszzGMqphAe-5NXfDQ&sa=X&oi=geocode_result&ct=image&resnum=1&ved=0CBkQ8gEwAA |title Jensen Beach Boulevard Roundabout |access-date= 15 January 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tcrpc.org/departments/studio/jensen_beach_downtown_charrette/roundabouts/roundabouts_home.htm|title=Jensen Beach Roundabouts Charrette|access-date=16 October 2007|archive-date=21 November 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081121070652/http://www.tcrpc.org/departments/studio/jensen_beach_downtown_charrette/roundabouts/roundabouts_home.htm|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Two roundabouts in the Melbourne metropolitan area, [[Highett, Victoria]]<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.street-directory.com.au/aust_new/index.cgi?CountryName=vic&x=145.039044269836&y=-37.9447586507931&level=6|work=Australia Mapsearch|title=145.039044269836,-37.9447586507931}}</ref> and [[Hampton, Victoria|Hampton]],<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.street-directory.com.au/aust_new/index.cgi?CountryName=vic&x=144.9930580000&y=-37.9200150000&level=6|work=Australia Mapsearch|title=144.9930580000&,-37.9200150000}}</ref> have [[passenger rail terminology#Heavy rail|heavy rail]] crossing the roundabout and through the inner circle. Boom barriers protect the railway from oncoming traffic at the appropriate points in the roundabout.

At the Driescher Kreisel<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.bergischgladbach.de/driescher-kreisel-1.aspx|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110927063931/http://www.bergischgladbach.de/driescher-kreisel-1.aspx|url-status=dead|title=Der Driescher Kreisel|archivedate=27 September 2011}}</ref> in [[Bergisch Gladbach]], Germany, a railway serving a nearby paper factory crosses a roundabout located next to a shopping centre and pedestrian zone. The flow of traffic and pedestrians is governed by 14 barriers, 22 traffic lights and 8 loudspeakers. The barriers close three times daily for 7 minutes to allow trains to pass.

In New Zealand's [[South Island]], two roundabouts join major roads where a railway cuts through. One is at the intersection between {{NZlSH|1}} (as Sinclair Street and Main Street from the east) and Main Street (from the west), Park Terrace and Redwood Street in the city of [[Blenheim, New Zealand|Blenheim]]. Here the [[Main North Line, New Zealand|Main North Line]] bisects the roundabout and separates Park Terrace and Main Street eastbound from the rest of the roundabout.<ref>{{google maps |title= Blenheim Roundabout |url=https://maps.google.com.au/maps?q=-41.51345+173.95987&hl=en&sll=-41.513261,173.960298&sspn=0.004362,0.010568&vpsrc=0&t=h&z=16 |access-date= 15 January 2012}}</ref> The other roundabout is located at [[Kumara Junction]] on the [[West Coast, New Zealand|West Coast]], where the [[Hokitika Branch]] separates {{NZlSH|6}} southbound from SH 6 northbound and {{NZlSH|73}}.<ref>{{google maps |title= Kumara Junction Roundabout |url= https://maps.google.com.au/maps?q=-42.58515%09171.12974&hl=en&ll=-42.585247,171.129779&spn=0.002145,0.005284&sll=-42.585184,171.129549&sspn=0.004289,0.010568&vpsrc=6&t=h&z=18 |access-date=15 January 2012}}</ref> Both roundabouts are controlled by flashing red lights, with additional boom barriers at the Blenheim roundabout.
