The aim of this paper is to propose an optimization strategy for traffic flow on roundabouts using a macroscopic approach. The roundabout is modeled as a sequence of 2 × 2 with one mainline and secondary incoming and outgoing roads. We consider two cost the total travel time and the total waiting time, which give an estimate of the time by drivers on the network section. These cost functionals are minimized with respect to the of way parameter of the incoming roads. For each cost functional, the analytical expression given for each junction.
