Since different regions and countries may use various terminologies for the same concept, some synonyms for the word "clearway" include lane closures, no-parking zones, expressways, throughways, freeways, highways, carriageways, roads with restricted stopping, among others. These synonyms are commonly employed in traffic regulations, signage, and road construction designs, all geared towards ensuring safety and smooth traffic flow.
