Fast-track interchange

摘要

It sounds simple enough: Widen a couple of roads and clean up an interchange. In the case of the I-64/Battlefield Boulevard project in Chesapeake, Va., the challenge and work is far from simple. Where the two roads meet, the heavy traffic on the interstate flows between Suffolk and Virginia Beach, and the crossover road is a busy local artery. The aerial view of the new interchange looks like a Celtic cross with circle-loop on-ramps and exits.rnIt is no surprise that the project has garnered notice and awards for its elegant engineering.
