1. Dead end

A dead end (also known as a cul-de-sac) is a street or road that has no exit or outlet at the end. It is a one-way road that leads to a closed area or a turn-around point, meaning vehicles cannot continue in the same direction and must turn around to exit.

  • No Through Traffic - Dead-end streets do not allow traffic to pass through to another road. The road ends at a point or a circular area where vehicles must turn back.
  • Turnaround Area - Many dead ends feature a cul-de-sac or turning circle, providing a space for vehicles to turn around easily.
  • Typically Residential - Dead ends are often found in residential neighborhoods, offering a quieter environment without through traffic.
  • Street Signage - A dead-end sign is often placed at the start of such streets to warn drivers that the road will not lead anywhere further.
