Straight Line Diagram
A straight-line diagram (abbreviated SLD) is a diagram of a road where the road is shown as a straight line. Such diagrams are usually produced by a highway department, and display features along the road, including bridges and intersecting roads. Rows below the diagram show data about the road, usually including speed limit, number of lanes, bridge numbers, and historical data, among other data. Subway lines also frequently employ straight-line diagrams. An internal SLD viewing system may also include links to other internal data, including photos or plans. Public SLDs are distributed in formats including PDF and TIFF. Straight-line diagrams were historically used in transportation planning but have been supplanted for these purposes by geographic information systems. A strip map is a road map laid out similarly to a straight-line diagram, featuring the same details found in more conventional road maps rather than technical details. In the United States, some strip maps are di ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

County Route 502 (New Jersey)
County Route 502 (CR 502) is a county highway in the U.S. state of New Jersey. The highway extends from Paterson-Hamburg Turnpike ( CR 504) in Wayne to Palisades Boulevard (U.S. Route 9W, US 9W) in Alpine. CR 502 is a very important east–west route in the northern part of Bergen County. North–south travel in the county is available via Route 208 and Route 17, the Garden State Parkway, US 9W and the Palisades Interstate Parkway.

CR 502 comprises Berdan Avenue, Breakneck Road, Long Hill Road, Franklin Lake Road, Ewing Avenue, Franklin Avenue, Wyckoff Avenue in Waldwick, a brief concurrency with CR 507 on ...

Divided Highway
A dual carriageway ( BE) or divided highway ( AE) is a class of highway with carriageways for traffic travelling in opposite directions separated by a central reservation (BrE) or median (AmE). Roads with two or more carriageways which are designed to higher standards with controlled access are generally classed as motorways, freeways, etc., rather than dual carriageways. A road without a central reservation is a single carriageway regardless of the number of lanes. Dual carriageways have improved road traffic safety over single carriageways and typically have higher speed limits as a result. In some places, express lanes and local/collector lanes are used within a local-express-lane system to provide more capacity and to smooth traffic flows for longer-distance travel. History A very early (perhaps the first) example of a dual carriageway was the ''Via Portuensis'', built in the first century by the Roman emperor Claudius between Rome and its port Ostia at the mouth of t ...

Past the freeway portion, the route heads northwest along the border of Morris and Passaic Counties as a four- to six-lane divided highway with a wide median at places, winding through mountainous areas and crossing Interstate 287 in Riverdale. The route continues northwest through Sussex County as a mostly two-lane, undivided road that p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Jughandle
A jughandle is a type of ramp or slip road that changes the way traffic turns left at an at-grade intersection (in a country where traffic drives on the right). Instead of a standard left turn being made from the left lane, left-turning traffic uses a ramp on the right side of the road. In a standard ''forward jughandle'' or ''near-side jughandle'', the ramp leaves before the intersection, and left-turning traffic turns left off of it rather than the through road. Right turns are also made using this type of jughandle. In a ''reverse jughandle'' or ''far-side jughandle'', the ramp leaves after the intersection, and left-turning traffic loops around to the right and merges with the crossroad before the intersection. The jughandle is also known as a Jersey left due to its high prevalence within the U.S. state of New Jersey (though this term is also locally used for an abrupt left at the beginning of a green light cycle). The New Jersey Department of Transportation defines three ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
