Highway Connector
Quick Answer
A highway connector is a road section connecting two highways or a highway to a city, often toll-free.
Detailed Explanation
Highway connectors (identified with 'RA' followed by a number) are expressways that connect different highways or link highways to major cities. They have features similar to highways (divided lanes, limited access) but are often free or have reduced tolls. Famous examples: Rome's Grande Raccordo Anulare (GRA), the Perugia highway connector. Speed limits and rules are the same as highways.
