See main article: List of Mexican Federal Highways.
This is a list of autopistas, or tolled (cuota) highways, in Mexico. Tolled roads are often built as bypasses, as toll bridges, and to provide direct intercity connections.
Many federal highways corridors numbers cover more than one autopista; other federal highways do not have limited access sections. Normally, Mexican federal highways that are on toll roads have the letter suffix "D" for Directo, e.g. Fed. 45 is free (libre) and Fed. 45D is toll (cuota). Most autopistas have a toll over all or part of their length. A few autopistas in very mountainous areas are two-lane.
The Mexican limited access highway network is the largest in the Americas outside the USA. The construction is generally financed by toll revenue (thus user fees) rather than fuel taxes, thus the toll rates are usually rather high, about MXN 1-, roughly 15- for private cars and motorcycles. Toll plazas along the mainline charge tolls anywhere from MXN $20 to $300, or US$1 to $15. Plazas, crossing the border, accept either pesos or U.S. dollars, but after leaving border city limits one must pay in pesos. The IAVE electronic toll collection system is available in Mexico's major cities to facilitate toll payments.[1]
