Basic information about Polish roads


Road classifications in Poland

Main roads were divided into three basic categories:

  • Class A – Core backbone network of grade separated roads, constructed to a motorway standard
  • Class S – Auxiliary grade separated roads, constructed to an expressway standard
  • Other national roads

Functional classification of roads:

  • National roads – motorways, expressways etc.
  • Regional roads – defined as “roads other than those presented above, which are links between cities, have a great significance for the voivodship, and roads with a military significance not included among state roads”
  • District roads – defined as “roads other than those mentioned above, which link powiat capital cities with gmina capital cities and gmina capital cities with other such cities”.
  • Communal roads

The Polish road design guidelines published by the General Directorate for Public Roads refer to seven technical classes of road (the English terms are approximate translations):

  1. highways (A)
  2. expressways (S)
  3. speeded up roads (GP)
  4. main roads (G)
  5. collector roads (Z)
  6. local roads (L)
  7. access roads (D)
