I think it means that the cars on the roundabout don't have to stop to let other cars on the roundabout. In other words yes the traffic on the roundabout has a higher priority than the other traffic.

"Right of way" translates to "通行権"
So therefore, the sentence might be something like this:
ロータリーにある交通は通行権を持っています。
It's probably not natural but I hope it puts the message across

Thank you, but I still have a question.
通行権 means whether it can use a road or not. But a car in a roundabout already uses the road.
Or, is it means that the traffic in the roundabout has a higher priority than traffic in other roads?
