Visiting Duncan Yesterday By Car,

I totally rely on Satnav,

the problem is so often I get a message, "Turn left in 30 yards", by which time I am 60 yards past the turning! with that in mind this is one overpass I would not like to travel over, featuring originaly 15 ramps intertwined over five levels and connecting three major expressways, the Huangjuewan Overpass in Chongqing is considered to be the world’s most complicated overpass, “You’ll have to drive around the entire city if you take the wrong ramp,” one motorist commented on a photo of Huangjuewan Overpass a while back, while others wondered whether their GPS systems would be of any help, considering the five vertical levels that the ramps are positioned on,

completed in 2017, after five years of planning and another seven years of actual construction work, Huangjuewan Overpass is considered somewhat of an architectural wonder, and its lead designer insists that any concerns about navigating the overpass are unfounded, but to be fair as he designer it I guess he would not find it daunting! Liu Bangjun told People’s Daily that the 20 ramps of Huangjuewan Overpass were necessary to make it easier to navigate. Because it connects three expressways as well as other regional roadways, designers took into account human error and added extra ramps to help drivers turn around faster. According to Liu, in case of choosing the wrong lane, motorists have an exit option within 10 minutes, and road signs are very visible, so even though ramps from Huangjuewan Overpass go in eight different directions, drivers shouldn’t be too worried, as it happens China seems to have a love of complex interchanges,

we featured this one, the Qianchun interchange in the mountainous province of Guizhou, in China, that features 18 different ramps, in 8 directions, on five different layers, with the highest one standing 37 meters above ground, back in 2018, as one commentator mentioned about their GPS system, I wonder how my Satnav would cope with either of them?
