Other than a citywide 30 km/h speed limit, there is little uniform planning within this "hidden" area; therefore, lanes (perpendicular to streets) and alleys (parallel with streets, or, conceptually, perpendicular to lanes) spill out from the main controlled-access highways.
Who acts: lanes · What happens: be, control · To what, where: citywide km/h speed limit, main controlled access highways
