What is a "diamond interchange"?
A diamond interchange is a type of road interchange where a highway crosses a smaller road, with ramps on each corner that allow vehicles to enter and exit the highway. The shape of the interchange resembles a diamond, with the smaller road running through the middle and the ramps connecting it to the highway. This design is commonly used in areas with moderate traffic flow, as it allows for easy and safe movement between roads without requiring stoplights or complicated turns.
Example
Engineers design diamond interchanges to efficiently manage high volumes of traffic without the need for complex infrastructure.
Traffic lights are typically positioned at each intersection of a diamond interchange to regulate the flow of vehicles.
Pedestrians often use designated crosswalks at diamond interchanges to safely navigate across multiple lanes of traffic.
