Funky Highway Interchanges

Some pictures here. The Tom Moreland Interchange (85 & 285) isn't nearly as complicated as the other.

As interchanges go my hometown favorite is 24 & 580 in Oakland (or Berkeley? - I'm not sure where the city limit is). But there it should be crystal clear what different freeway exits do. The only funky elements are the very long on-ramp to 580 East (it begins west of the interchange) and the 51st/MLK exit (just north of the displayed area).

Oh, and I suppose it's confusing that the same highway is called "980" south of that interchange but "24" north of it.

And honorable mention to the stuff just east of the Bay Bridge toll plaza. Serpentine and industrial.

What Other People Say

As funky as some of those are, they still move traffic faster than the old Oklahoma cloverleafs.
