Autopista and autovía numbers in Spain

Last updated 20-5-02

Spain

A numbers used to be reserved only for motorways. Since about 1990, there are also dual carriageways with motorway characteristics (autovías, which are not motorways) with an 'A' number. Some existing motorways were downgraded and many new A numbers are assigned to autovías.
Route descriptions generally start nearest to Madrid and in the zone a route belongs to.
In 2001, all 2-d numbers in Catalonia were changed to C numbers.
