What is a "spaghetti junction"?
A spaghetti junction is an informal term used to describe a complex and tangled highway interchange with many overpasses, ramps, and roads that intersect in a confusing or intricate pattern. The design can look like a plate of spaghetti, with roads looping over or under each other in multiple directions. Spaghetti junctions are often found in busy urban areas where several highways or major roads converge, helping to manage high volumes of traffic but sometimes making navigation challenging for drivers unfamiliar with the area.
