A barrier of grass, concrete or other material separating two roadways, including interstate highways is known as:

  1. Divider

  2. Gate

  3. Median

  4. Partition

The correct answer is: Divider

A barrier of grass, concrete, or other material separating two roadways, including interstate highways, is known as a divider. This term is commonly used to describe the physical separation between opposing lanes of traffic to help prevent head-on collisions and enhance overall road safety. Option B, "Gate," is incorrect as gates refer to movable barriers used for controlling access. Option C, "Median," is similar to the correct answer but specifically refers to the area separating opposite lanes of traffic, while a divider encompasses various physical materials. Option D, "Partition," also doesn't accurately describe the specific barrier mentioned in the question.
