The road network of Cuba consists of 60,858 km (37,815 mi) of roads, of which over 29,850 km (18,550 mi) are paved and 31,038 km (19,286 mi) are unpaved. The Caribbean country counts also 654 km (406 mi) of motorways (autopistas).
Motorways
Overview
Cuba has eight toll-free expressways named Autopistas, seven of them centralized in the city of Havana and connected to each other by the Havana Ring Road, with the exception of the motorway to Mariel. The carriageway is divided and the lanes in each direction go from two to four. Maximum speed limit is 120 km/h (75 mph). In the Isla de la Juventud, the dual carriageway from Nueva Gerona to La Fe is classified as a motorway.[1]
The principal motorways A1 and A4, running from the west to the east of the island and partly unbuilt (most of A1 sections), are the only one numbered and shortened with "A".[1] As well as the Carretera Central covers the entire island, they are projected to perform the same function as motorways.
The route from Matanzas to Varadero of the Vía Blanca is the only toll road between Cuban motorways. The other autopistas have short routes and run from Havana to its suburban towns in Artemisa and Mayabeque provinces.
