Cleveland Figured Out

In the tradition of Pittsburgh Figured Out by Bob Firth (publisher?), this is a page explaining many of the unexpected road and highway connections in the greater Cleveland area.

For now I have links to aerial photographs of the more complicated or unusual interchange complexes in the area. Although often outdated somewhat, detailed maps are available from the pages with the aerial photos by using the drop-down menu to the left of the photo mosaic. Additionally, interchange diagrams are distributed throughout the Ohio Department of Transportation Straight Line Diagram (SLD) .pdf files (all of the below are wholly or partially within Cuyahoga County so choosing that option from the SLD page is the most practical). I may eventually apply some of those maps to this page. Mapquest.com is also fairly accurate.
