Limited access highway would probably be understood generically in most of the US, but the term would not normally be used in the context, "Take the limited access highway to get there." Instead people would say, "Take the freeway (or expressway, or Interstate, or turnpike according to local custom)."
Or autostrada or autoroute or autobahn or motorway...
Limited access highway seems unlikely to be misunderstood.
