To achieve these goals, all houses must be built in the required street.

...create one of the two roundabouts available on an empty house’s box.

Ke splnění tohoto projektu je potřeba mít očíslovány všechny domy v požadované ulici.

I have a question about advanced rules objective.

In rules it is defined as follows:

To achieve these goals, all houses must be built in the required street.

Does using roundabout on that street voids the achievement? Rules about roundabout states:

...create one of the two roundabouts available on an empty house’s box.

I looked in the official Czech translation and the plan states:

Ke splnění tohoto projektu je potřeba mít očíslovány všechny domy v požadované ulici.

For those, who doesn't speak czech, it says roughly "You have to have a number on every house on the street".

So in my opinion roundabout is not a house and the achievement can't be completed. Or can it be used as a house?

Thx for your input!

In current implementation, that's how it's work anyway.

According to the rules, a roundabout is "created", not "built". Absolutely nothing in the rule suggests that a roundabout could replace a house built for the purpose of the objective "all houses must be built in the required street".
When a roundabout is built, there is no longer one street, but two streets. The objective is not to build houses in these two streets, but in one street (without a S at end), which clearly excludes the existence of a roundabout in the required street.

I found this thread Can a Roundabout complete a street? which confirms the current implementation.
I had not looked so much for the rule seemed clear to me on this point. Now, if the game designer contradicts the rule, I bow.
