They have no one-level intersections with any roads or other forms of land and water transport. They are equipped with roadside rest areas, which are intended only for the users of the motorway. • Expressways share most of the characteristics of motorways, differing mainly in that: • Expressways may be built without paved emergency lanes. • Expressways are designated for lower speed than motorways. For example, the road curvature can be higher and the lanes are usually narrower (3.5m vs 3.75m). • Expressways can have a single carriageway on sections with low traffic density.
