onramp
Freeway entry lane
An onramp is a short road that allows vehicles to enter a highway or freeway, typically curving to merge with faster traffic: We missed the onramp and had to circle back.
Figuratively, an onramp is any entry point or introductory pathway: Community college can be an onramp to a four-year degree.
Also spelled on-ramp.
