Farther down the corridor, the road opened into a broad five-way intercity junction.
The five roads widened into multiple turning lanes around old traffic islands. Fuel stops, warehouses and roadside businesses occupied much of the ground around the junction.
Most were abandoned now.
Cars had been left across several turning lanes while part of a roadside structure had collapsed into the southern approach. A delivery truck sat diagonally across another lane with its rear axle buried under broken concrete.
The surviving road signs made the junction more useful than the mess suggested.
North led back toward Grefort.
The main corridor continued south toward Silverpeak.
Horjus branched east, close enough to the main route that the city could be reached without forcing Silverpeak traffic through it.
Another road turned southwest toward Skinshank, with Hawford listed farther along the same wider route.
