BIM Roundabout Design - Resource Website

As a follow up to our two webcasts, Savoy has created a mini site based around the topic and also posted the webcast (UK.Europe one as I screwed up the other week a bit !)  Also I have added two flavours of the dataset so you can drive on either side of the road so you can have a go by requesting trial copies of the software that you don’t have.
