A carriageway (British English) or roadway (North American English) consists of a width of road on which a vehicle is not restricted by any physical barriers or separation to move laterally. A carriageway generally consists of a number of traffic lanes together with any associated shoulder, but may be a sole lane in width (for example, a highway offramp).

carriageway
A carriageway refers to a roadway or a lane on a road that is intended for the use of vehicles. It is the part of the road that is constructed for vehicular traffic, distinct from footways or sidewalks intended for pedestrians. In places with divided highways, each separate flow of traffic can be referred to as a different carriageway.

A carriageway consists of a width of road on which a vehicle is not restricted by any physical barriers or separation to move laterally. A carriageway generally consists of a number of traffic lanes together with any associated shoulder, but may be a sole lane in width. A single carriageway road has one carriageway with 1, 2 or more lanes together with any associated footways and road verges. A dual carriageway road has two roadways separated by a central reservation. A local-express lane system has more than two roadways, typically two 'local lanes' or 'collector lanes' and also two 'express lanes'. High occupancy vehicle lanes may also be physically separated from the rest of the general traffic lanes into a distinct roadway.
