Description
Back in the 60's, some engineers from Gothemburg thought they were really smart. They apparently had some amazing plan to connect Europaväg 6 and Europaväg 20 to each other. Ok, sounds like a plan, right? Well, they also thought it was a brilliant idea to connect every other road in the vicinity to the interchange aswell, creating this jumbled mess. Oh, and if that wasn't enough, they had to add traffic lights to the northern approaches, just to make it more unbearable!
...I'm getting far to caught up in this. But seriously, what should have been an easy task to connect up two motorways quickly became one of the worst interchanges in Sweden. Lets see if it's any better in-game, shall we?

=======================================================================

Advantages:
+ In its purest form it's a simple three-way Y interchange, with fast ramps for all directions
+ No weaving

Disadvantages:
- Ramps everywhere! The amount of traffic going through this is far too heavy
- Huge for what is supposed to be a three-way interchange
- The priorities are slightly jumbled

=======================================================================

Cost: 45 420
Upkeep: 510 / week

In-game description:
If you need proof that Sweden is a highly developed country, then look elswhere... Olskroksmotet is a mess, if you ask me...

I've also heard it was designed when Sweden was driving on the left side of the road. So it may even become worse because we changed to drive on the right side.

I go through it almost everyday and this is amazing, missing the train track tho

I never thought I'd be so into the history of interchanges but this is amazing, great work!

Haha, I can almost see this monstrosity from my window. That's a faithful recreation right there!

This is one of the reasons I decided to live and drive in New York City instead of Gothenburg. Nobody likes driving in Gothenburg. Nobody.

Well this stuff jammed on it's U-turn very easily. A failed design as a service IC.
