10. Gravely Hill Interchange
Also called 'Spaghetti Juction', its is one of earliest stack interchange in the world as it opened in 1972. It is located in Birmingham, England.
9. Gate Tower Building
Located in Osaka, Japan; it is the only elevated interchange that goes into buildings. It happens due to landlord refused to gave up land, hence the an agreement archived with such design.
8. Judge Harry Pregerson Interchange
Found in Los Angeles, USA; it is one of a few five-level stack interchanges existed in America. What makes this one so special since it also integrated with metro line and bus transit station right in the middle.
7. Nanpu Bridge Interchange
Located right in the middle of Shanghai, it's unique circular design is a smart way to integrate 3 highways while elevating traffic into a very high bridge at the same time.
6. Porta Maggiore
Road that go around this historic monument give drivers hurrendous experience with trams and train railways cross exist every 20 feet.
5. Springfield Interchange
Being most busiest interchange in USA, it also host two interchange in one place-one for regular highways, another for HOV. It costs 676 million USD which makes it the most expensive intersection in USA (maybe even world).
4. Oyamazaki Interchange
Can be found in Osaka, Japan. This tentacles junction makes driver go rounds few times before exit the interchange. Another crazy fact is two unnecessary branch which leads to same destination.
3. Arc de Triomphe Roundabout
Being Paris famous landmarks, it also serve 12 roads by its wide roundabout. The traffic atmosphere would trigger question if you are still in Europe.
2. Yan'an Interchange
This is the only 6 level stack interchange and the highest stack number on the planet. It joints two elevated motorways while pedestrian overpass and local crossroads uninterrupted.
1. Magic Roundabout
Located in Swindon, England; it contains five small roundabouts on each entrance of roads. Its design may look insane but the it works in dispersing traffic into bigger area and accident rate statistic is fine too.

As for #4 Oyamazaki Interchange, previously the main expressway (Meishin Expressway) was normal dual carriageway. However, congestion became so severe by 1990s that Japan Highway Public Cooperation decided to build another dual carriageway and make it quad carriageway (2+2 for westbound, 2+2 for eastbound). The construction was completed in 1998. Still, the expressway is congested since it connects Osaka, Kyoto, and Nagoya, so another route is under construction which is called Shin-Meishin to bypass the old route.

@retiredcolonel6492 2 жыл бұрын

I lived in NOVA and drove the “spaghetti bowl” in Springfield very frequently. The new one is a great improvement over the old one. The biggest headache is if you’re not in the correct lane by the time you’re in the midst and traffic is heavy (and it’s almost always so) you either try to do what many tourists do: slow (or even stop for heaven’s sake) or try a last second lane swerve across six lanes of traffic. If you are planning on driving this road and you’re unfamiliar with the roads, either use and follow your GPS or know in advance which road will take you to your destination and stick to it.

@kurookaryuji 8 жыл бұрын

2:50 => Actually it perfectly makes sense to have two routes flowing through each direction. Most of the interchange is only one lane. Having two routes flowing through a central roundabout removes the need to change lanes to change direction. The track starts at the 3 lane straight away. One lane for each approach direction (side, top and bottom). Instead of changing lanes each lane splits into two directions each. Lane 1 is fed by the top and the roundabout, then splits into into the roundabout or goes out the side. Lane 2 is fed by the bottom and the roundabout, and splits into the roundabout or goes out the side. Lane 3 is the roundabout is fed by the side and goes out the top or bottom. It's completely modular. They can section off any point or even the entire central ring (let's say... to have a race) and the freeway would still work.

The "Magic Roundabout " in Swindon is not the only example of this type of interchange, as there is also another such interchange, (also known locally as the "magic roundabout!") in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, with an identical layout and the same number of roads but the traffic on the roundabout travels in both directions, clockwise and anti-clockwise! It looks like a nightmare to navigate but is actually quite easy!

@aslightidiot Жыл бұрын

The hemel Hempstead one, called the Slough(I've been on it) is slightly smaller but has 6 mini roundabouts instead of 5 if I remember rightly

Until I retired, I drove through Spaghetti Junction every workday. It's actually very straightforward. A road comes from the city centre and splits into 2. 1 serves the motorway and splits into 2 for North and South. The other serves local traffic and also splits into two routes. I'm sure that most of the others were similar. Follow the signs and the rest doesn't affect you. Unfortunately, at Spaghetti Junction they did not put as much thought into the lowest level where local traffic is on a roundabout with 5, badly designed and badly signed options.

@47485ksc 6 жыл бұрын

Actually, if you knew how roundabouts worked, you'd understand they're very successful at keeping traffic flowing. What fucks them up is people approaching, instead of properly merging into the flowing traffic, they STOP!!! They sit there and wait for an opening. That's way roundabouts have no red, yellow and green LIGHTS! You're not supposed to STOP! Very simple process but most drivers don't understand or even know the proper theory of operation of something as simple as a non-moving part roundabout! "Look! No red, yellow and green lights! What do I do? STOP for Christ's sake!" Blithering idiots, you included. You should have known.

@washingtonwebfoot9908 6 жыл бұрын

You try to merge into traffic in a roundabout Western Washington without waiting for an opening you will get hit by another car. People in this state are jealous of their position in traffic and leave precisely three feet of clearance between them and the car in front of them.

The Springfield interchange is a vast improvement over the original design, separating through from local traffic and eliminating a very dangerous merge/exit point for I95 and the DC beltway.
