How do you model the geometry? 

U-6084 creates NC’s first continuous flow intersection in Mecklenburg County (https://abc11.com/traffic/charlotte-gets-ncs-first-continuous-flow-intersection/5626243/).

I looked at a couple of our Diverging Diamond interchanges, and they are a little simplified.  

Our LRS is built from centerline geometry created by local public agencies, these two screenshots from Junction City and Overland Park both simplify the situation more than we would probably like, but we can work with it.

So for a Diverging Diamond, we model the geometry this way.

continuous flow intersection is looking more like this 

Here are cad images of the pavement markings, the redline is the sheet break. The images are trying to show north of the intersection and south of the intersection.
