A free-flow interchange is an interchange in which all roads are grade-separated, and where movement from one road to another does not require the driver to stop for traffic (for example, the interchange may not include traffic lights or unsignalized at-grade intersections). Free-flow interchanges are less likely to induce traffic congestion than non-free-flow, but are typically more expensive both in money and in land. Some free-flow interchange bring additional problems such as weaving or passing lane/fast lane exits (i.e. left exits in areas with right-hand traffic, and vice versa) that may be necessary to avoid additional costs, but lead to congestion and accidents and ultimately to an upgrade to another type of interchange. ==Examples of free-flow interchanges== * Stack interchange * Cloverleaf interchange * Trumpet interchange * Cloverstack interchange * Directional T * Semi-directional T * Turbine (whirlpool) interchange 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Free-flow interchange」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
