[Fluff time] How would you describe to someone the differences in streets that say ”dead end”, ”no outlet”, and ”not a through street”?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:A “dead end” is just that; a bit down the road, it just ends. No cul-de-sac, no curb, just dirt beyond the asphalt. “No Outlet” is put up when there would seem to be a way through a closed neighborhood. I have one near where I live; you turn off the main drag into a street that is essentially a big oblong loop, but the only way out of the neighborhood is the one street to get in. “Not a Through Street” means the street does not continue.Try driving through Berkeley CA where they put planters at intersections to calm traffic by not having people be abel to rive through.
