This city is a variation of the last. Here the parallel freeways shown in yellow run not only east-west but also north-south, four kilometers apart, to form a large grid. The letters down the left side indicate distance south, in 2-km increments, from the north edge of the city; those across the bottom indicate distance east. It's assumed that rather than mere letters, the city would assign names. For example, F G H and S T U might be Fresh Gold High and Sumac Totem Urchin. So the east-west freeways shown here would be the Fresh Expressway and the High Expressway. Each freeway has interchanges, 700 meters apart, with connecting roadways shown in red: square Avenues and oval Boulevards. At each of the four corners of these connectors is a landmark structure, indicated by an X, so that motorists will always be headed toward some visible goal. As in the previous plan, each connector is crossed repeatedly by a street which interfaces with driveways and parking lots. For one particular connector, Fresh Totem Boulevard, we've highlighted in blue the street, called Fresh Totem Street. Three areas of this plan are shaded in green.
