History and naming process -

The Mecedes Flowers Memorial Freeway (aka Mercedes Freeway) is the largest road in Zayrattan. It is 18 lanes wide for 7 miles through Downtown Venacia. It is a completely new freeway that was built to relieve Andes mountains ground traffic between Renana and the capital city of Venacia.

The freeway is one of only two that connect the two cities through the Andes mountains (the other being the Goldsworthy Freeway).

The freeway was completed in 2019 and named after Mercedes Flowers (my Grandmother), who died in 2014 from cancer.

The high volume of traffic can cause this freeway to move somewhat slowly at times, but the traffic jams never travel slower than 35 miles per hour, and they usually clear up pretty fast (within minutes), making this one of the safest and most tolerable freeways in the nation.

The freeways in Zayrattan are in the process of adopting signed numbers like those if the real-life Interstate Highways System (from which the Zayrattanian highways are based). The Mercedes Flowers Memorial Freeway has not been assigned a number yet, so until then, it will be identified by its current name.

Recommended for use? Obviously! it connects evey major city in Verderiesdre

History and name meaning -
Merychlikane Highways, interesting story, interesting designer, basically just big highways. It was built to accomodate Verderiesdre's major industrial growth, cheap vehicle prices also contribute to growing traffic, and some more tourist problems.

It is 1970, Verderiesdre was starting to become stronger and stronger in terms of its economy, Sherlings continue to rise in value, accordingly 13.88Sh=1$, Major industrialisation was pretty much the reason it happens, but suddenly, traffic congestion roars in every single highways connecting major, almost every truck driver left their jobs from stress and underpayments, of course, Verderiesdre needs a solution, it comes from 2 Architects, enter in, Gerald Merryweather Fischer and David Salschlikane.

Gerald and David were very famous for their designs of Skyscrapers and Bridges, they were particulary succesful, and of course the King (Verderiesdre was a Monarchy back then) requested them to develop a superhighway to solve major traffic problems that plague the whole country, then they developed this 32-lane highway, named the Merychlikane Highway, named after both architects, more ambitious crossover than Endgame. However, large highways doesnt actually solve traffic congestion, althought this actually does, since everyone was complaining about 2 lane highways. The highway spans across the nation, connecting major cities, some even founded near them. The highway costs 15.6 Billion to make, but has significantly contributed to 869 Billion dollars per year of Economic Income.

After 1975, things have cooled down alot, no more traffic jams, at least not daily ones, smooth every day, every hour, it is still a major road for all traffic going to other citites, its still remembered to be the best road you can choose to go around the country.

History and naming process -

The Alexandra Goldsworthy Memorial Freeway (aka Goldsworthy Freeway) is a large freeway in Zayrattan. It is 5 lanes wide on each side for its entire length. It is Zayrattan's first freeway, and it is the first freeway to be built through the Andes mountains between Renana and the capital city of Venacia. The freeway is one of only two Andes Mountains freeways that connect the two cities (the other being the Mercedes Freeway).

The freeway was completed in 1996 under the operational name Halverson Freeway (after one of my real-life friends). It was renamed the Goldsworthy Freeway in 2019 after a memorial service for Zayrattan's 13th President, Alexandra Goldsworthy, who was killed by a terrorist bomb in Venacia in November of 2018.

The bombing started a massive civil war that dominated all the other freeways in Zayrattan. This freeway and many others suffered severe damage or total collapse in some places.

The freeway experiences traffic jams through the mountains at almost all times. This is a result of people who inadvertently slow down when they see an accident, a move known as "rubbernecking", which creates traffic jams. The jams on the Goldsworthy Freeway in the mountains can hit 10 miles per hour and can be up to 70 miles long.

The freeways in Zayrattan are in the process of adopting signed numbers like those if the real-life Interstate Highways System (from which the Zayrattanian highways are based). The Goldsworthy Freeway is currently being assigned its own highway number, Interstate 2.
