01. Gibraltar Airport, Gibraltar
On a short meander down Winston Churchill Avenue in Gibraltar—and on the 2.6 square mile island, every distance is short—you may run across the airport. After all, its runway intersects with the street. While the airport only has a handful of flights daily, the peninsula’s lone runway needed to take up a small bit of the main roadway and that prompted railroad-style crossing arms to keep traffic at bay. Please do heed the warnings.
02. High Five Interchange, Dallas
The ever-growing metropolis of Dallas couldn’t build its freeways any wider, so where Interstate 635 connects with U.S. 75 Dallas the answer was to go up. Opened in 2005, the High Five Interchange rises as tall as a 12-story building with its five-level stack interchange that includes 43 bridges. Don’t take a wrong turn here.
03. Taganskaya Square, Moscow
Traveling through Moscow's Taganskaya Square means cruising through two strange and messy intersections where the upper and lower parts of the square meet in a tangle. Not only do you have nearly a dozen roads coming in or out of the square, but the size of the side-by-side squares allows for gobs of traffic, making this effort not for the faint of heart. Or for those unsure of exactly which way they want to go.
