Mas Hikmat, menurut linknya ini adalah “saluran air dari bambu/talang yang melintang di atas sungai/jalan”, jadi bukan viaduct/overpass karena viaduct/overpass adalah tempat orang dan/atau kendaraan lalu-lalang. Ini (jalantara) sering kelihatan di daerah yang padat penduduknya, kadang-kadang dengan kawat berduri untuk mencegah orang melintas di atasnya. Tetapi kalau margantara, saya sama sekali tidak tahu. Jangan-jangan zebra crossing (tempat margasatwa belang menyeberang jalan). :)

interstate


Explanation:
Kalau masuk peta, apalagi dengan yang skalanya global (tingkat provinsi atau kota, bukan tingkat lokal kecamatan/kelurahan seperti pada kebanyakan undangan kawin :), maka sesuatu itu pasti penting dan mencolok mata.

Tebakan saya, jalantara itu sekadar singkatan kreatif bagi "jalan raya perantara [kota]" alias interstate.
