divided highways
Roads with medians
Divided highways are roads where opposing lanes of traffic are separated by a physical barrier or median strip, preventing head-on collisions.
The divider may be grass, concrete, or guardrails.
Most interstate highways and many major roads are divided.
The divided highway made the commute safer but added miles to the route.
