The inside of interstate cloverleaves are an advertising gold mind. Incredibly high visibility, totally unused and unusable for any productive purpose, long term location stability and (thus far) totally unutilized.
One simple advertising 3D platform or sculpture in the middle of a cloverleaf could
have unprecedented eyeball time.

(-) bad time to distract a driver, sorry. |
|
| |
Many of the roundabouts in my town have floral arrangements in the middle sponsored by various local businesses. |

how about a giant statue of the Cloverfield Monster, Godzilla, or T-rex holding the road up instead of the verticle columns. Maybe that could be your entrance to downtown where all the nightlife is. |

When is it a good time to distract a driver? |
|
| |
When he's the one holding the gun? |
|
| |
I've seen sculptures already, but only of livestock (to celebrate the Great Plains). |
|
| |
There's a giant ammonite in the middle of the roundabout just to the south of Lewes, England. |
|
| |
There's a spectacular peacock made of flower beds, in the middle of the roundabout in front of the cathedral in Calais, France. |
|
| |
There's an exquisite bronze fountain, in the form of a giant octopus in the middle of a roundabout in Portofino, Italy. |

I'm trying to tell you this is not exactly a new idea, [DO]. |
|
| |
[DO], limit the scope to either: |
|
| |
A. rotating many sided polygonal advertising boards in the quadrants of the leaf. This seems effective, driver friendly, cool, and new. |
|
| |
B. Filling the entire cloverleaf with a clover field (not the monster). Me thinks the recursive logic to this version would more satisfy the halfbaking gods. The cloverfield monster sculpture as a new way to prop overpasses is a splendid addition, as well. What can't that thing do?! |
|
| |
Long story short, your idea may lack definition, i.e. is it a sculpture or an advert? And if it's plainly either of these, then [bone]. |
|
| |
I was gonna m-f-d [magic] this, wondering how you'd get the leprechauns to do the work for you. But it's early and I mis-read. |

Taps foot, waiting for picture of Interstate Cloverleaf..... |
