I´ve heard that Caracas has one of the best freeway sistems in Latin America

cool freeways

Excellent post Occit, and yes... we have really good freeways but TOO many cars, we need better PT, altough we have a very good metro system too, but it needs to be improved...

So if you want a live image, (now in christmas it could be even late at night) just fill EVERY lane with cars as if those were parking lots :lol:

I´ve heard that Caracas has one of the best freeway sistems in Latin America

Buenos Aires and Santiago freeway systems are very good too. Size doesn't say everything.

Nice aerials man ;)

Looks good! :)

Buenos Aires and Santiago freeway systems are very good too. Size doesn't say everything.

I didn´t mention it was the best, I was generalizing by saying it is one of the best, and I agree with you in one point, Santiago and B Aires also have exellent freways but this thread is about Caracas

This is a great thread, Occit!

wow looks impressive

Cool. Was a lot of this infrastructure paid for by oil money?

yes cCs have a good freeway system anyway as a city always have to get better

Very Cool!! caracas has one of the most incredible freeways as Latin american and all the world.

WOW! I love this photo. Location of these top buildings is superb. Only u have to be careful not to fall down:)

Nice. Especially Caracas, but the majority of the other pics aren´t motorways, but just high capacity roads.

Could i use the term "Expressway" to including all categories?? :dunno:

Love this type of highway.

I thnk New Zealand should have more of this type of highway too

http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb261/chosebus/DSC05332.jpg

Such highways are banned in the Netherlands. Too unsafe, they say. However, i like this kind of road. A wide asphalt median, but i wonder why it isn't a full motorway with crash barriers. It doesn't take more space up than now.

Maybe there's no barrier because side roads and driveways intersect?
In that case its a nice wide median for turning traffic.
Occit might know?

They're ok imo

Could be a possibility but i really don't know. :?

In California, there are quite a few of such 4-lane roads, and some of them even have a speed limit of 105 km/h. I don't like them for the very reason they are banned in NL - it feels too unsafe to drive there. However, this type of road doesn't last too long - maybe 10-15 km stretches and then they either become full motorways or narrow down to 2-lane roads.

Nice highways, good to see that the petro dollars are going into infrastructure.
your president is a very interesting man with some interesting opinions especially as far as the western powers is concerned. :)

Very nice.

Well engineered and well built.

I would only add fences to keep the cattle out in the rural highways.

Caracas freeway systems is fabulous.... a tropical Los Angeles.

WTF??? all this highways/expressways were built before Chavez...!!! :mad: i hate Chavez... :mad:

WTF??? all this highways/expressways were built before Chavez...!!! :mad: i hate Chavez... :mad:
Don't worry, there's a lot of ppl outside your country that see what Chavez has done to your country. It's clear that you can draw a line in the sand and see what your country looked like before he was elected, and what it looks like afterward.

Sooner then later, RCTV and other stations shall return to the air(not just on cable either).

What's with this one? Why didn't they just build it right the first time?

^^ Those venezuelan highways lack a propper median with crash barriers. :lol:

Landscaping around Caracas is superb. I think Venezuela's highways are among the best in Latin America together with Argentina, Uruguay and Chile.

Are they gum trees I spot on the side of those roads?

Nice pics.

Love that one of Caracas at night on first page.

Cool!

There are gum trees on the road between Muir Woods, and US101 in San Francisco.

What's the peacock's name in last photo?

Beautiful scenes - beautiful pics :)

Thanks...I will post some more later




The name of these birds in Spanish is Pavo Real. I found the scientific name: Pavo cristatus. In English is: Indian Peafowl. More info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Peafowl

Such highways are banned in the Netherlands. Too unsafe, they say. However, i like this kind of road. A wide asphalt median, but i wonder why it isn't a full motorway with crash barriers. It doesn't take more space up than now.

Two years later, but here's the answer, sometimes they open the highway and put the barriers later. :nuts:

I guess this avenue in Caracas could be considered an Expressway too:

Avenida Libertador

Where do you get all these route number shields?

Where do you get all these route number shields?

I make them on illustrator (based on the country's Road and Traffic Manuals) as I find the road pictures. Let me know if you want any made :)

^^ Ah. :) Might be useful for wikipedia, by the way. The Roads South America are pretty badly covered even on the Spanish wikipeda.

What does the "Y" in the YV abbreviation actually mean? I have no idea, it's the Bolivar republic of Venezuela.

I have no idea. I thought you had set up the name like that. The official name of the country is "República Bolivariana de Venezuela". I think its country code is "VE" (two letter ISO code) and "VEN" (three letter UN code). I find the three letter code more descriptive, and hence tend to use it more because its easier to identify certain countries that have similar abbreviations in the two letter code. It would be nice to standardize all the codes used for the thread names in this forum to either the two or three letter code.

Very similar to the Verrazano Narrows Bridge (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verrazano_Narrows_Bridge) in New York City.

Could someone please post pics of the current autopista Caracas-Maiquetía-La Guaira and pics of the Caracas-Guarenas-Guatire motorway ? Thanks in advance :)

The reason those aren't used here, as you may know, is that the codes used here are the International Vehicle Registration Codes, which may or may not be an official term. Like Venezuela, some countries have pretty obscure codes, for example the Swiss CH comes from the Latin name for the country, "Confoederatio Heveltica", which comes from the name of a pre-Roman tribe.
