China National Highways

(Redirected from China National Highway)

The China National Highways are a series of trunk roads throughout all of China. Although they are called highways (such as the Jingbao Highway), they are not expressways. However, like expressways across China, a toll is sometimes charged.

Although an accepted speed limit on China National Highways is 80 km/h, it is not uncommon to see cars zip by in excess of 100 km/h. The lack of speed detection cameras on some routes, and the lack of a signed speed limit outside of localities, means that enforcing this speed limit is rather Herculean. In addition there is a notable shortage of traffic police in China.

Nationwide highways often begin with the letter G, followed by three numerals, e.g.: G107. It is said that the G stands for 国 (guo), or country.

The numbering of the highways are as follows:

  • Five vertical and seven horizontal main routes are labelled in the 000 series (the so called "five downs and seven acrosses").
  • Except for China National Highway 112 , which originates in Tianjin, all highways in the 100 series (e.g. 102, 106) begin from Beijing, the capital city of the People's Republic of China, and spread out in all compass directions;
  • Highways in the 200 series stretch from north to south;
  • Highways in the 300 series stretch from west to east (e.g., from Lhasa in Tibet through to Dandong in Liaoning province).
