Distortion Induced by Planarization in Urban Road Networks: An Empirical Assessment Using Edge-Betweenness-Prioritized Sub-graphs Across 40 Cities

Urban road networks are routinely represented as planar graphs even though overpasses, underpasses, and multi-level interchanges create crossings that no planar embedding can preserve. This study quantifies the distortion introduced by this representational choice across 40 citie...
