I've noticed that they all are standing on a square metal plate in the middle of the traffic circle. I'm just guessing that it makes their constant turning go smoother.

I've read there are about 200 TGs. If two TGs are assigned a location, and perhaps 75-80% are at work at any given time, I guess a rough estimate can be calculated.
