Expressway

STR-EXP-025 Freeway

Expressway

A high-speed road with partial access control, some at-grade intersections remain, unlike a fully grade-separated Freeway. Out of the Commonway System's detailed design scope.

Typical at: Rural Suburban Compact

Undeveloped and Urban are edge cases. Core is an unlikely pairing.

#Design notes

Expressway sits between full Freeway and Arterial in character, partial rather than complete access control, which is why its realistic density range skews slightly narrower than the full Freeway Default entry.
