We discuss a numerical discretization of Hamilton-Jacobi equations on networks. The latter arise for example as reformulation of the Lighthill-Whitham-Richards traffic flow model. We present coupling conditions for the Hamilton-Jacobi equations and derive a suitable numerical algorithm. Numerical computations of travel times in a round-about are given. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification. Primary: 90B20, 35L50; Secondary: 35F21.
