The article is devoted to the design of multi-level interchanges by means of Topomatic Robur software. Problems of data preparation and creation of 3D model of the object are discussed. Particular attention is paid to the automation of the most time-consuming tasks. Approximate sequence of actions is shown by the example of the left-hand exit design.
