Road

Map symbol for roads: red fill for trunk road/motorway/county road, brown for municipal road, white for minor and private roads.

Road types are colour-coded differently on the map:

  • Trunk road, motorway and county road — two black lines with red fill between them.
  • Municipal road — two black lines with brown fill in the middle.
  • Minor roads — white. Private roads are also often white.

Example of road types on a map.

Minor roads are marked with white fill and are often private — check whether they have a barrier gate or signed access rules before you park or set off on foot.
