How do you feel about the new five-level stack interchange in Chongqing, China, which is being promoted as one of the most complex in the world?

Even if there weren't mountains in the way, it's unlikely the road designers would stick to cardinal directions. They're just not where most people want to go!

A lot of people will end up using it. Chongqing is a huge city. Indeed in the 1990s it was briefly the biggest city in the world by municipality population.

>in the 1990s it was briefly the biggest city in the world by municipality population
this has to do with the chinese definition of municipality which encompasses territory outside of strictly urban borders, so it isn't really a fair comparison

at any rate people will still use it frequently. people assume that all this infrastructure being built in china is just posturing but they have no idea how badly it's needed on all levels

No.
Just look to Japan when you want something Asian.
PRC's national highway and expressway are known to be sloppy.

I wonder how many people's homes were in the way & got knocked down. I'm doubting that China's laws on eminent domain are quite what they should be.
