What is a "ramp"?

A ramp is a gently sloping path that connects a higher or lower level, designed to make it easier for vehicles or people to move onto or off a main road or highway. It helps provide a smooth transition between different surfaces, such as when entering or leaving a freeway or parking area. Ramps are commonly used to ensure safe and efficient movement, especially for vehicles, but also for pedestrians when needed. They are an important feature for making areas more accessible and easier to navigate.
