Jump to: navigation, search

This is a list of numbered federal highways (carreteras federales) in Mexico. Federal Highways from north to south are assigned odd numbers; highways from west to east are assigned even numbers. The numbering schema starts in the northwest of the country (Tijuana, BC). This list identifies the road terminus always starting from the north or the west end of the highway.

[edit] Identification of Toll roads (autopistas)

The Mexican Constitution grants all citizens the right of unrestricted mobility throughout the country, for this reason, toll roads (autopistas) are always parallel to a free route and are named after this parallel free road. The numbering schema for the toll roads follows same plan as the federal highway with the addition of the letter D; for example, Highway 1D parallels Highway 1.

[edit] Identification of State Highways (“carreteras estatales”)

Every state in Mexico, except the Federal District, builds and maintains a road network. The numbering schema for these roads varies by state but it always starts with the initials of the state plus a number; for example State Highway DGO500 runs from Guadalupe Victoria to Ramon Corona in Durango.
