What is the proper way to handle complex/branching intersections in linear referencing? I have a road shapefile I was going to linear reference, but I have some segments that are very complex. I have tried ignoring their complexity and locating them on my route like they were a simple line, but I ended up with problems since the tool doesn't distinguish between the parallel segments and assigns them to segments seemingly at random. I have tried researching solutions, but am stuck. See below my failed attempt at locating features along the route.
The points' intended locations are shown below spread across the road segments at my points of interest.
Do I have to simplify this segment of the route somehow or are there other steps/tool settings that will enable the proper location of the points on my existing route?

For a better understanding of Linear Referencing I would suggest simplifying your tests and diagrams to no more than about 3 lines, routes and events.

I have been tinkering with simpler tests and building my understanding, but this is a route I need to linear reference. Could you at least offer a good google search term? I have read a lot of documentation, and I don't know where to look next.

Don't forget to take the Tour to learn about our focussed Q&A format. I recommend not thinking about GIS SE as being some sort of online GIS tutor. For your questions to be answered here they should as much as possible describe not just what you want to do, but precisely what you have tried and where you are stuck trying that. I have not touched Linear Referencing for a while I have always found it best to try an transform what I want to do into a simple test that I run. If I get stuck I describe the tools and parameter values used in a question here.

Perhaps search on "snapping routes linear referencing" or "linear referencing branching routes" but without a simpler example of what you are trying to do in your question I'm not certain that either is what you are after.

About using ArcMap to create routes from existing lines says:
Complex routes
The process of creating a complex route is very similar to that of
creating a simple route. The only real difference is that you must
build a complex route in pieces. Once the pieces are created, they can
be merged.
The workflow shown in the task for creating a complex (looping) route
is not the only one. With your knowledge of editing in ArcMap, you
might choose a workflow that is more appropriate for your
organization.
The workflow for Creating a complex (looping) route will need some modification.

For a better understanding of Linear Referencing I would suggest simplifying your tests and diagrams to no more than about 3 lines, routes and events.
