Whats the difference between a highway,freeway or expressway.?

I'll venture to guess that a highway can be most any road, preferably a main road, that connects towns and cities together. A freeway and an expressway would be very similar to each other, but better than a highway in that there would be no traffic lights, the only way to get on and off would be through interchanges, and the speed limit would be similar to Interstate speeds. Of course, a freeway suggests that there would be no tolls, while an expressway might have tolls. Then there is California...which has it's own "rules" about freeways and expressways. What a mess, huh?

Sherman Oaks or Studio City.  Both really nice areas with lots to do.  Shops, restaurants, bars, etc.  Just a very nice place to be and it's also easy to get to Burbank.  No freeways are needed.  I used to do that commute myself.

I have see both terms used on road plans, and have heard both spoken on various road projects.  Either seem to be correct.

a- traffic is less important than quality of life\n\nb- they want to bury the highway\n\nc- the express way is a major barrier between the people and the lake which is a natural attraction\n\nd- make it uncomfortable for cars... why not?

Roads are the basis of most economies if not all. Transport of goods is easier if roads are good.

inter means between two or more\nintra means within one\n\nI don't know about waterways, I always think of "interstate" which goes between states, and "intrastate" which is within one state.

There could be road construction. Usually it's people changing lanes, trying to get from the far left lane to the exit ramp on the far right, people trying to get on the expressway, people talking on their cellphones and driving slower, old people driving slow...

Hawaii's Interstate routes were an outgrowth of the statehood movement that culminated on March 18, 1959, when President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed legislation making Hawaii a State.\n\nThe decision to designate Interstate routes in Hawaii may become clearer by adding that the Interstate System is more than just a series of connected highways. It is also a design concept, with highways designed to handle high volumes of traffic safely and efficiently at freeway speeds. Moreover, the Interstate System is not limited to routes passing through two or more States. Many Interstates, such as circumferentials/beltways and spurs, are confined to one State.

The terms may frequently apply to exactly the same thing. However, 'road' is a general term, whereas 'street' is narrower in sense and chiefly urban in application: a street typically has buildings on either side, and is paved or metalled.
