The longest road type in Austria was other roads, which may include roads without a hard surface, with a total length of over 91,200 kilometers as you can see in Austria roads map. Secondary or regional roads had a total length of 23,653 kilometers. Motorways had the shortest length among the Austrian road network, amounting to 1,743 kilometers that year. Austria roads are similar to those of other European countries. The speed limits are 100 km/h on freeways (Bundesstraße) and 130 km/h on highways (Autobahn). In residential and urban areas, the speed limit is usually set at 50 km/h, unless posted otherwise.

The A1-A4 are the main motorways from Vienna (Wien) as its shown in Austria roads map. They evolve around Wien in counterclockwise order. Two more (A5 and A6) are planned. (Numbers should have been the other way round to continue the spider-web. A7-A14 are in the west (numbers increase further away from Vienna). The A15 is planned but will probably not be built soon. A21, A22 and A23 are near Vienna and the A25 is a link between the A1 and the A8. The A26 is a planned western bypass of Linz. S roads are mostly short dual carriageways with motorway characteristics. For not yet completed sections of an Sx, a federal road is designated as LB(300+x), together these form one route. For example, there are several sections of S16 linked by the LB316.

The former B roads have a nation-wide numbering system as its mentioned in Austria roads map. There used to be a distinction between priority roads and others, the former are represented by white numbers on blue squares, while the latter were black on yellow disks. There is no correspondence between class and number of digits. Numbers (L)B1-10 are main roads from Vienna, evolving in clockwise order. Only B1, B3, B7, B8 and B10 begin in Vienna. The B2 begins north of Hollabrunn and the B3 runs from Engelhartstetten (B49) via Vienna to Linz but was changed to the S5 (formerly B304) between Stockerau and Krems. L roads without priority almost never appear on signs and are used for administration only. The only known signposted numbers are: 2003 and 2067 in Niederösterreich and 118 and 124 in Styria (Steiermark).
