The State maintains 1,400 paid kilometers

The State Highway Network still maintains 1,435 kilometers of tolls, which represents less than 10% of the total high-capacity roads existing in Spain. None of these toll state highways are already in Catalonia, which does, however, have four toll sections dependent on the Generalitat. These are the C-16 in the Cadí tunnel, the Vallvidrera tunnel, the route between Sant Cugat del Vallès and Terrassa, and the C-32 between Castelldefels and El Vendrell.

On the roads that depend on the State, the main toll roads are the AP-7 between Malaga and Guadiaro, the AP-68 between Bilbao and Zaragoza, the AP-9 in Galicia, the AP-66 and the AP-71, in León, and the access roads to Madrid (R-2, R-3, R-4, R-5, AP-41, M-12 and AP-36), as well as the AP-6, AP-51 and AP-61 between the provinces of Madrid, Segovia and Ávila.

During recent years, the current Government has been liberalizing more than 1,000 kilometers of tolls and has subsidized different sections of expressways, a measure that represents a disbursement of 65 million per year. Transport estimates that with their decisions drivers save a total of 1.4 billion a year.
