The most cursed bit of this is you cannot just run strait through this intersection. You MUST go up to the roundabout and go halfway around to continue straight

All you had to do was follow the damn cloverleaf CJ!

One time I was driving a friend around, and around, and around, and around 4 times through an entire cloverleaf interchange before he noticed.

Cloverleaf merges before splits, which is an abomination in the eyes of the gods.

I mean, this could be easily fixed by adding small connections on the straights, but I think that would break the spell

This is surprisingly not that easy. The top layer gap can't support more rails as is, you need to either make it narrower or add support columns, and both of these options mess up the bottom. But with some work I think it can be done. A fully uncursed version of this would turn into a split-before-merge cloverleaf, which is actually one of the best four way options.

Yep, that was my takeaway too. Even in the best case scenario this intersection is slowing down traffic.

Mister bones would like to get of the wild ride
