Motorways (from wikipedia) For a road to be classified as motorway a number of conditions must be fulfilled. Although they may vary from country to country, the following conditions generally apply: * to be a dual-carriageway * Accessed at junctions by slip roads off the sides of the main carriageway; * Joined by link-roads at an interchange, the object of which is to allow traffic to change route without stopping or slowing significantly; * Traffic lights are not permitted (except at toll booths, certain interchanges and to control the number of vehicles entering the motorway from the slip road during busy periods) - see ramp meter; * Have signposted entry and exit points at the start and end; * Certain types of transport are banned, typically pedestrians, bicycles, learner drivers, horses, agricultural vehicles, underpowered vehicles (e.g. small scooters, invalid carriages). In the Republic of Ireland, the "Motorway Ahead" sign at every motorway junction lists the excluded classes of vehicles (this sign was also formerly used in the United Kingdom - from which the Irish version is based - but has been almost entirely phased out). Currently in the UK, the last junction a road becomes a motorway is signed for 'prohibited traffic'. In most Australian states, a sign for "Motorway Entrance" or "Freeway Entrance" was traditionally put at the start of these roads, but these too are being phased out. In New Zealand, a no pedestrians and no cycles sign precede the "Motorway Begins" sign to tell pedestrians and cycles that they are not allowed on the motorway.
