  Interchange (road) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the field of road transport, an interchange is a road junction that typically utilizes grade separation, and one or more ramps, to permit traffic on at least one road to pass through the junction without crossing any other traffic stream.
A highway ramp (as in exit ramp and entrance ramp) or slip road is a short section of road which allows vehicles to enter or exit a freeway (motorway).
A basic stack involves roads on four levels, but in stacks including ramps for direct movement between high occupancy vehicle lanes, even more levels of stack can be needed; the interchange between Interstate 105 and Interstate 110 in Los Angeles County, California, is a five-level stack.

 Frontage road - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A second frontage road on the opposite side of the freeway is visible and was built during construction of the freeway.
A frontage road (also access road, service road, outer road, and especially surface road, or feeder) is a non-limited access road running parallel to a higher-speed road, usually a freeway, and feeding it at appropriate points of access (slip ramps).
Service roads and collector lanes are not needed in suburban freeways which tend to be designed with interchanges spaced further apart and which have property development located a fair distance away (to avoid noise and pollution of the freeway).

 Back Room: 'Give Way' at motorway slip roads
Now the design of the slip road was perfectly safe for traffic joing at 70 mph but this guy was doing 125 mph and he was going to join the motorway at that speed no matter what (absolutely typical of some BMW drivers - dons nomex suit and ducks for cover).
