Maybe I'm being picky. What I mean is: we have a worldwide graph of roads,
or a "network" if we want to call it that. A grid network, to me, sounds
like an orthogonal grid, like the one you'd find in Torino or New York.
no, I don't think that this was intended
Of
course, the roads are interconnecting, otherwise it wouldn't be a network.
I thought this was a common term in English, but as I am not a native
speaker I might be wrong
Residential roads connect, too: they form a graph whose edges may be less
important than the other bigger ways, but they're still part of the graph,
just like tracks and footways.
They are part of the road graph, but not of the interconnecting
network, that is what this sentence is about
All roads are interconnected where they join into each other.
To me "interconnecting grid network" is, essentially, three words to
describe the same thing.
