Where highways intertwine
The view from the north, just south of the Waldihnok pass . The natural and agricultureal vegetation of the Emerald Valley is so precious that it is extremely complicated to expand the transportation netwrok in the area. The highways are forced to be constructed high up in the air.

The expressways of Miklasgard is a mixture of orange and green pasta
The city uses two types of expressways. They all use US numbering system, where north-south freeways are odd-numbered, and east-west are even. Long distance, major expressways have numbers divisible by 5. Expressway branches going through a city and rejoining the expressway are numbered with a three-digit number, the first digit being even, the last two being the number of the original expressway. Non-loop branches have an odd digit in their three-digit number.
Freeways are numbered on orange shields, are free or have minimal flat-fee tolls, usually for crossing a major bridge, a tunnel or the Mielborg-Yngeborg-Kingstad Royal Territory.
Expressways proper are numbered with green shields, and are always straighter, wider, have more lanes and higher speed limits. Many of these expressways are military, since the military is the original inventor of the concept. Such expressways always have the "YIELD TO MILITARY VEHICLES. STAY IN THE RIGHT LANES" signs posted at every entrance ramp. These expressways are have distance-based toll system. As with all toll systems in Attland, they automatically scan vehicle's license plates.
Some freeeways turn into expressways as 55 outside the city, or when turning into a shortcut or a tunnel, as is the case with 10, 22, 24, 314.
Some of the expressways have freeway branches, as 69's 369, 6's 106 and 306, 51's 151.
