Rótula do Abacaxi, Traffic intersection complex in Salvador, Brazil
The Rótula do Abacaxi combines ten viaducts and four pedestrian bridges at the junction of major roads in Salvador's transportation network.
The construction of the Baía de Todos os Santos Express Highway led to the creation of this infrastructure project, addressing traffic congestion issues.
The Portuguese name translates to 'Pineapple Roundabout', reflecting the Brazilian practice of naming urban landmarks after fruits and local elements.
The complex connects multiple areas including Iguatemi, Sete Portas, and Avenida Antônio Carlos Magalhães, with access to the Acesso Norte metro station.
During a public visit, President Dilma Rousseff changed the nickname to 'Rótula do Quiabo' due to the improved traffic flow after construction.
