Carriage way A carriageway (North American English: roadway[2]) consists of a number of traffic lanes within a road together with

any associated shoulder with no physical barrier between the lanes. A single carriageway road (North American English: undivided highway) has one carriageway with 1, 2 or more lanes together with any associated footways (North American English: sidewalk) and verges (North American English: Tree lawn). A Dual carriageway road (North American English: divided highway) has two roadways separated by a central reservation (North American English: median). A local-express lanes (collector-express systems) system has more than two roadways, typically two 'local lanes' or 'collector lanes' and also two 'express lanes'. High occupancy vehicle lanes may also be physically separated from the rest of the general traffic lanes into a distinct roadway. Surveying Surveying or land surveying is the technique, profession and science of accurately determining the terrestrial or three-dimensional position of points and the distances and angles between them. These points are usually on the surface of the Earth, and they are often used to establish land maps and boundaries for ownership or governmental purposes. Stacking In the field of road transport, an interchange is a road junction that typically uses grade separation, and one or more ramps, to permit traffic on at least one highway to pass through the junction without directly crossing any other traffic stream. It differs from a standard intersection, at which roads cross at grade. Interchanges are almost always used when at least one of the roads is a limited-access divided highway (expressway or freeway), though they may occasionally be used at junctions between two surface streets.
