Correct answer
Central reservation.
A central reservation. The Roads Act defines it as a longitudinal strip between two carriageways, not intended for traffic. It is neither a shoulder alongside the carriageway nor an intersection. Its design and separation features may vary; its presence does not guarantee that a vehicle can never cross it. It is not simply a painted line separating two lanes of the same carriageway.
