Cogroad

/koʊˈɡroʊd/ noun

Definition

A road system or arrangement incorporating cog wheels or mechanical traction, or a road with two equally important routes.

Etymology

From 'co-' (together) and 'road,' likely an obsolete or highly specialized term from early industrial transportation.

Kelly Says

This appears to be a term that never gained traction—there are almost no historical records of 'cogroad' being used consistently, suggesting it was an experimental word that didn't meet a real need.
