Toll rd. LA Times Crossword Clue |
TNPK |
Answer Explanation
The crossword clue "Toll rd." leads to the answer "TNPK." This abbreviation stands for "turnpike," which is a type of toll road. Turnpikes are highways where drivers must pay a fee, or toll, to use the road. The term "turnpike" originates from early toll roads in the United States and England, where a turnpike, or a barrier, was turned to allow passage once the toll was paid. Modern turnpikes are essential for funding road maintenance and infrastructure improvements, often featuring multiple lanes and higher speed limits to facilitate long-distance travel. Therefore, the crossword clue "Toll rd." appropriately corresponds to "TNPK," reflecting the common practice of abbreviating turnpike in both written and spoken language.
