Which term denotes a road with opposing traffic flow or a median strip?

• A. Dual Highway
• B. Bridge
• C. Tunnel
• D. Marsh

Answer: (A)

Roads that carry traffic in opposite directions are split into two separate carriageways with a median between them to keep vehicles from crossing paths head-on. That setup is called a dual highway, a divided highway, or a dual carriageway—the key idea being the separation of opposing traffic by a median. A bridge, tunnel, or marsh describes something different: a bridge and a tunnel are structures or features for crossing or traversing obstacles, while a marsh is a wetland—none of these define how traffic is organized on a road.
