Aerigian public roads and highways are categorized into four main categories, in increases in traffic volume:

1)Municipal Roads: These are the common roads and streets in cities, towns and townships. They are usually located inside the built up areas of the municipality in charge of them. No tolls are required.

2)Regional/County Roads/Highways: These roads are usually wider abd have higher traffic flow than municipal roads, they usually serve as connections between the cities in the region or county. No tolls are required.

3)Provincial Highways: Roads that cross regional boundaries within an Aerigian province. Tolls are usually not required.

4)Federal Highways: Federal highways are cross country routes built for high speed travel similar to the autobahns of Germany. They do run inside urban areas, where they are similar to provincial highways. Tolls are required on the intercity or rural stretches of Federal highways.

Tolls for roads are paid by electronic toll collection (ETC), via liscence plate recognition of the vehicle. With the adoptation of Heartland-wide liscence plates, and a Heartland-wide toll billing system, it makes travel on Aerigian highways simple.
