a divided highway designed for high-speed traffic, typically with multiple lanes and limited access points
An expressway is a type of road designed for fast-moving traffic, with few or no intersections, traffic lights, or stops. It typically has multiple lanes in each direction, allowing vehicles to travel quickly over long distances. Expressways are built to reduce delays and provide a direct route between cities or regions, often avoiding smaller streets or towns. They may include ramps to help drivers enter or exit easily. These roads are primarily for long-distance travel and are designed to handle high volumes of traffic at higher speeds than regular streets or highways.
