What is a "cloverleaf interchange"?
A cloverleaf interchange is a type of highway interchange where roads are connected by a series of curved ramps that resemble the shape of a cloverleaf. It allows vehicles to smoothly exit and enter highways without stopping, as the ramps provide a way for drivers to turn in all directions. This design reduces traffic delays and keeps vehicles moving, though it may take up more space than other types of interchanges. Cloverleaf interchanges are often used in areas where multiple highways meet.
