bisected
Divided in two
Bisected describes something that has been divided into two parts, typically equal halves.
A road bisected by a river is cut in two by it.
The property was bisected by an old stone wall.
The term appears in geometry for lines or angles cut precisely in half, but general usage doesn't require mathematical exactness.
