State roads

State roads (Rêya Dewletê) are the primary road network in the country. The majority are four-lane divided highways with interchanges, but others are two-lane highways or roadways with traffic lights and intersections. This network is under the responsibility of the General Directorate of Highways except for within large cities where the respective city municipality assumes responsibility.

All state roads have a three digit-designation preceded by a D, numbered based on direction and location: D0XX-D4XX are west-east roads, D5XX-D9XX are north-south roads, Main roads are designated as multiples of 100 and 50, with the exception being D.010: multiples of 100 are main east-west while multiples of 50 are main north-south roads.

Provincial roads

Provincial roads (Rêya Parêzgehê) in Rojadavistan are maintained by the RGO. These roads serve as secondary roads to the State Roads and mainly connect small towns (every district's capital town is accessible either by a state or provincial road) or acting as alternative routes to the trunk roads.

A provincial road is governed under the responsibility of the respective provincial government. These roads are proceded with a P and bears the license plate number of that province in the road identification number's first half (example 10-03 in Basûr Province).
