Spain has the third largest motorway network in the world. There are mainly two types of roads in Spain.
- Autopistas - Autopistas are the toll roads in Spain starting with the letter AP. Many autopistas in Spain are free of toll charges because of less traffic density. Autopistas that connect major cities like Madrid, Barcelona, Bilbao levy tolls for road usage.
- Autovías - Autovías are the toll-free alternate routes.
You can pay tolls directly at the toll stations on the autopistas. Toll payments can be done using cash, credit cards, or using Via-T - an onboard unit that deducts tolls automatically. There are two toll tunnels on autopistas where you need to pay tolls for crossing the tunnels.
- Túnel del Cadí[1]
- Túnels de Vallvidrera
